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…

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….
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…
Chicken & banana korma – it will blow your mind !!
Chicken & banana korma !!Yes you read that correctly!! Recipe taken from Nisha Katona’s cookbook called ‘Bold’. The whole books concept is about taking familiar recipes and being ‘Bold’ by stepping outside of the box….it has my name written all over it. I’ve never been one for ‘doing what’s always been done’ or ‘that’s the…
Delightful Southern Indian take on a chicken curry ❤️

Keralan Black Treacle Salmon ❤️
This…..is one of the best Indian inspired dishes I’ve ever made!!! This takes home cooking to another level. The flavours within the dish were insane…yet so simple. Again over the past few days I’ve used two different methods of cooking the fish within one dish, both of which I’ve done before but I wouldn’t have…
Goan fish curry ❤️
After a recent visit to Mowgli I was blown away with the flavours of this dish. I’ve had a number of Goan fish curries from a number of restaurants but nothing as tasty as this!! Goan curries usually have a hot and tangy heat running through them however this was tangy and sweet….and I now…
The classic Mowgli prawn curry
What a joy of dish this was to make !! A simple dish which took less than 20 minutes to make with very little preparation. A ‘sweet’ tasting dish due to the perfect marriage of ingredients. I’ve mentioned it before, the more Indian / Asian cooking you do the more you build up your larder…
