Bicol Express – Filipino curry !
This dish was stunning! Another dish I’d cooked for National Curry Week. Only slight downside was the shrimp paste I used. The shrimp paste was brought back from Singapore by a friend who was working out there with JLR. It was stronger than anything I’d previously used and the smell hung around for days…..lesson learnt!!…
Homemade ‘tandoori’ marinade ❤️
I’ve been making this marinade for a few years now. Once you make the switch to making your own you will not go back to ‘shop bought’ versions. This takes less than 5 minutes to with a few hours doing its magic in the fridge ahead of roasting. I’ve been making this that long now…
🌶️Chicken Vindaloo…..potential stinger🌶️
Very nervous about cooking this dish. All the cooking I do is based around flavour rather than wanting to blow my head off with heat and lose the ability to enjoy the meal. When I see those ‘macho’ guys sitting in a restaurant trying to convince their friends and family they are enjoying the meal…
Chicken tikka masala – Family favourite ideal for little ones ❤️
This is a beautiful dish for a number of reasons. 1. Full of flavour. 2. Brilliant way to introduce little ones to Indian food. 3. Simple recipe. 4. One pot cooking which is always a plus!! This isn’t how I would normally make this dish but due to my eldest son’s love for the dish…
Simple…yet stunning chilli con carne ❤️
Well….at the age of 48 as I write this….I’ve just cooked my first chilli con carne from scratch!! I love this dish! Had it so many times over the years but I’ve always stayed away from making it myself. To help me relax I decided to bite the bullet and have a go myself. I…
Punjabi paneer & peas 👌
Recently I’ve been eating too much meat and having recent purchased a new cook book from someone I’ve been following on Instagram I thought this was the perfect recipe to make on a warm weekday night. I’ve many paneer recipes and cooked a number of different versions of this recipe but it’s good to have…
Chicken curry with cardamoms – heavenly ❤️
This is a wonderful, basic flavoursome dish for the whole family. Simple cooking methods, very few ingredients which makes the whole process easy from start to finish. As you would expect, taking the recipe from Madhur Jaffrey’s cookbook called ‘Curry Easy’ says it all. The recipe is stripped back and so easy to follow. Whilst…
Japanese curry – with a twist 👍 (making the very best of leftovers)
Wow. What a dish, for so many reasons!!!!! Firstly, this was my first attempt at making this curry. The flavours are amazing. Most of the work goes into making the paste (roux), that’s as hard as it gets!!! The paste is surprisingly good, especially as it’s made with grated apple !!! Yes you’ve read that…
Lamb bhuna ❤️ an alternative way of cooking this classic 👍
Love making this dish. This method again is different to your usual restaurant/ takeaway version as it consists of no base sauce, you make your own sauce ! Again, it’s a simple recipe to follow and can be cooked in the same time it usually takes your local takeaway have it ready. Ingredients- 4 tbsp…
