Punjabi mushroom & peas ā¤ļø
I love cooking dishes which gravitate ingredients we usually overlook. Like the beetroot curry this dish makes our beloved mushroom the star of the show. Another bonus for me is the cost of this dish. Being able to take relatively ācheapā ingredients to cook a very wholesome beautiful dish which for me is more rewarding….
Vietnamese fish sauce chicken wings !
This dish isnāt for the faint hearted!!! Not the taste or heat from the chilliesā¦ā¦but the smell of fish sauce! The fermented fish which is how the sauce is created really causes the kitchen to have a lasting strong smell!! If you can get over the smell, this is quite a nice tasting and cheap…

Old fashioned Delhi style lamb bhuna ā¤ļø
I havenāt posted for a while as Iāve had too many personal distractions. However, the cooking has helped. Iāve put a lot of focus into cooking authentic dishes whilst still cooking āwesternised recipesā. The āauthenticā dishes have a completely different make up and method to the westernised dishes which I find more appealing. Westernised dishes…
