Hello my friends. It’s been a while I know. I’ve not felt like writing up the cooking I’ve been doing but I know I should. No matter what’s going on in my life, I’ve always found the writing of my food therapeutic which is why I started the page in the first place…..so here goes….

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…
Chicken jalfrezi – simple and easy family favourite ❤️
Who doesn’t love a jalfrezi ?? This cooking method is different from the westernised restaurants and takeaways as I’m using no base sauce. You make and create the sauce as you make the dish. This version was again cooked to celebrate National Curry Week at the start of October. The beauty of this dish is…
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…
Beetroot curry – yup you read that correctly !!! 👍🏻
This dish has fascinated me for many years. A popular dish in India and Sri Lanka. It’s fascinated me due to the fact you are taking a very humble ingredient ‘the beetroot’ to be the star of the show! Many many versions of this dish have the beetroot cooked in coconut milk to have a…
🌶️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…
Goan fish curry – delicious ❤️
Having been previously been a pescatarian fish for me is my preferred food to eat. Also my food hero being Rick Stein I’m naturally swung towards fish. I’ve cooked several versions of this dish previously, one being from Rick’s book – India. This recipe was taken from a local author and her new & 1st…
Lamb keema shimla mirch – simplified version ❤️
After recent times, kitchen time was needed. I’ve not felt like posting for a while as I’ve not done much cooking, however this little gem cooked last night sparked a little flame inside. I’ve cooked a more complexed version of this dish before but to try and light the flame again I made this simplified…
Paneer curry ❤️
Love paneer, love flavoursome curries….love this dish. This simple yet stunning recipe taken from a lady called Suki Pantal who I’ve followed on Instagram for a while and this is from her first cook book – Garnish with Garam Masala. a regional dish from when she was living in Delhi. The only change I made…
