This is a lovely dish. The flavours burst through giving you a beautiful tasting plate of food. It’s a fantastic way of lifting potatoes to another level, but the surprising element of the dish….is the peas. Trust me, try the dish and you’ll understand what I’m rambling about. Ingredients- 4 tbsp of vegetable oil, 250g…

Aubergine curry with tomatoes, ginger & fennel seeds ❤️
Another dish taken from Rick Stein’s – Far Eastern Odyssey cook book. The recipe is nice and simple. Another contributing factor I picked this recipe as all I needed to purchase was the aubergines which cost 80p each. I had all the other ingredients in the house plus the mint that was used I picked…
Beef Kofta Curry 👍
My best ever homemade dish ❤️. What a tasty dish this was!! The flavours just kept flowing through each mouthful. One of the best plates of food I’ve ever made. The recipe was taken from Rick Steins – Far Eastern Odyssey. The last book I purchased to complete his collection. I think almost all of…
Chicken Vindail with dhal – belter of a dish.
Another new dish for me. Taken from my food hero’s cook book – Rick Steins India written after his successful TV series of the same name. A few reasons I was drawn to this recipe – 1. a cheap dish to make as I only needed to buy the chicken thighs on the bone which…
Newlyn fish pie
I wanted to cook a dish which was a bit of a traditional nod towards the jubilee. A classic dish written by my food hero and took me back to Cornwall. The recipe was taken from Rick Steins – Fish & Shellfish cook book. Having met Rick a few years ago in Padstow the book…
Salmon wellington with a white wine sauce – heavenly.
I wanted a challenge. This was the perfect step outside of my comfort zone. Lots of little steps which kept me busy in the kitchen on a wet Sunday afternoon. The salmon was reduced in Morrisons and as we all know you shouldn’t purchase fish from the supermarkets on a Sunday or Monday as they…
Grilled Asian inspired scallops
I love scallops. Due to most supermarkets and fishmongers moving to hand dived method of catching scallops the prices have shot up….and rightly so. Sustainable fishing practices should be put into place fully to protect our fishing stocks. Sadly though due to this cost rise scallops aren’t something I’d pick up nowadays. Thankfully these were…
Vietnamese poached chicken salad with mint & coriander ❤️
I’m not sure where to start with this dish!!this dish is sooo good!!! The recipe is taken from my food hero Mr Rick Stein and his book Rick Stein at home which was written during lockdown. When I leave work on a Friday night I tend to go and park up in the local Sainsburys….
Stunning chicken passanda 👌
This recipe was taken from Rick Stein’s Indian cook from his tv series travelling around India. If you haven’t got this book in your food cookbook library then it’s a must. The recipes are superbly written and broken down into easy methods which are easy to follow. Rick goes on to explain he took this…
Cooking for others ❤️
Having planned a BBQ for friends who sadly we’ve not seen in a while our plans were ruined by the British summertime weather! Plan B. Indoor BBQ with the standard food. However, I’m at my happiest when I’m cooking for others. As well as your ‘standard’ BBQ food I added 3 Indian inspired dishes. British…
