Pav Bhaji Masala – heavenly ❤️

I spotted this recipe on Instagram from an Indian cooking influencer and I was instantly fascinated by its simplicity and the overall concept. The following evening I took a stroll around to a local Indian deli that’s popped up on the housing estate behind me ( quite a random place for kind of authentic shop…

Tandoori chicken Madras 🌶️🌶️

Thought I’d do a little update as I’ve not written for a while due to a number of distractions 😞. Just taking a moment to write this ok a Sunday morning with a cuppa in bed. When it comes to curries, I’m all about flavour over heat. I do like to enjoy the flavours that…

Ingredients- 4 tbsp of vegetable oil, 250g…

Aubergine curry with tomatoes, ginger & fennel seeds ❤️

I had all the other ingredients in the house plus the mint that was used I picked…
