A beautiful and stunning plus simple dish to make…..however…..the dish is named so because of the pan it’s cooked in…..a karahi pan. If you you don’t have one of these traditional Indian cast iron pans, well my friends with just be a chicken saag 😀. The dish is named after the pan. The karahi pan…

Broccoli Pakora’s
This is a simple and quick recipe for a beautiful starter or side dish. I was cooking two very different chicken curry dishes for an evening in with friends. I thought that ‘chicken pakoras’ would just be too much chicken to indulge on so I came up with this alternative – Broccoli pakoras….and wow!!!! Simple…
Beef Curry Hotpot – A New Years Eve’s delight !
This was an absolute delight to make and the flavours made it even better which made this the perfect dish for New Year’s Eve. This dish was taken from the last book from The Hairy Bikers which was in the process of being written as Dave Myers sadly passed away. Having received the book as…
Lamb bhuna – alternative method which is stunning !!
I love this dish. Lamb full stop in a curry is sensational but this thick sauce is another level – even better that it’s so easy to make !!!! This again is a different method to your traditional westernised takeaway / restaurant method. I’m not using a pre-made Indian base sauce, I’m making it as…
Egg curry 👌🏻
I first discovered egg curry’s when I removed meat from my diet. At the time I substituted meat with many different types of vegetables, paneer and eggs plus being pescatarian I ate many varieties of fish. Egg curry’s are staple dishes in India for many reasons. Another reason I like this dish is because a…

This dish holds a great deal of sentimental value to me. When I was doing my Saturday morning curries this is a dish I had on my…

A Diwali celebration – Mowgli paneer ❤️
Now, I love paneer. It’s such an amazing comfort food. The paneer whatever dish you are cooking absorbs the flavours like a sponge. Also paneer offers a great cost effective dish as a single pack from the supermarket usually costs around or below the £2 mark and feeds two people comfortably. So to celebrate Diwali…
British Beef Raj Curry 🍜
I love cooking this dish from Rick Stein’s ‘India’ cook book. It’s a great dish due to the simplicity & the flavours. I have to be honest, it’s my go to comfort food, perfect to put on and leave to cook whilst pottering about. The flavours are insane considering you are only using 3 ground…
