I love discovering new dishes! This dish was like ‘wow’ !! So much flavour it’s unreal, again with very few ingredients, as they say – ‘less is more’. The recipe is a modified version of a dish by ‘Mother India’ whom I discovered during a work trip to Glasgow. The original recipe used halibut, but…

Crab meat over broccoli – Regional dish from Guangdong 🇨🇳
A simple yet stunning dish made with everyday supermarket ingredients. This beautiful dish is a regional dish which originates from Guangdong in China and it is exactly what it says. A beautiful sauce mixed with crab meat and finished off the heat with a whisked egg white which thickens and holds the sauce together is…
Spinach meatball curry
Spinach meatball curry ❤️ – recipe taken from ‘30 minute Mowgli’. Anyone who knows me knows that I love the chain Mowgli. Everything about the chain, recipes, ethos & brand values fascinates me. I love recreating their dishes and recipes all written up by Nisha Katona who dream of opening this restaurant became a reality…
Tamarind cod curry ❤️
I love the cultural history behind this dish. Tamarind within any dish gives a natural ‘tangy’ hit which I love, tamarind is also used in my favourite dish – pathia. Both have a similar ‘sweet & sour’ hit from the tamarind and sugar with chilli under notes. This dish traditionally is a dish from South…
Bhindi Aloo Dhabi – (okra and potatoes )❤️
This is a new dish for me on many levels. New as in I’d never attempted it and new as in I’d never eaten okra ❤️. I was inspired to find a recipe and create it after hearing stories from a work colleague about it when he was at home in Indian. I could hear…
Chana gosht ❤️ – lentils & lamb
Two of my favourite ingredients in a single dish, especially in a curry. I love lamb in any curry dish. I think the lamb meat, any cut, holds onto spices better than any other meat. Love a slow cooked lamb dish when the meat flakes apart into the curry. Then there is my favourite side…
My love for a ‘dhal’ shines through ❤️ – Red lentil & spinach dhal ❤️
One of my favourite Indian meals – the humble and underrated dhal. A staple meal of millions of houses in India. You can cook and add anything into a dhal. For me it’s either a fantastic side dish or equally amazing main! I’ve spent hours in the kitchen cooking dhals using various lentils & beans….

Penang chicken curry ❤️ with egg noodles & tenderstem broccoli finished with crispy onions.
I’ve tried to make this dish many many times using different methods and recipes. Each time I’ve not got it right sadly. I’m determined to get it right as having eaten the dish out it’s a beautiful representation of Thai cooking. I’m fascinated by all dishes from Asia and regions but I find Thai cooking…
