This is a dish I’ve wanted to cook for a while, and no better time to cook it on Father’s Day. Nice to put some music on and step into the kitchen to chill out and shut off. The dish itself was very easy to make, getting a chicken to stand up in the oven…

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…
Green Dahl with rhubarb & ginger ( with the added bonus of the rhubarb coming from my own garden) ❤️
Having recently purchased the cook book from Mowgli I loved the sound of this dish as it put together two of my favourite ingredients, lentils & rhubarb. The rhubarb gives the dish this unbelievable ‘zingy’ taste from the tartness the rhubarb has to offer. From garden to plate within just under two hours as the…
Chicken ruby – a dish made famous by Dishoom
Having received the Dishoom book for Christmas 2021 I was hooked. I’d seen Dishoom in India on tv and I was fascinated by the food and the theatre of the restaurant. I have been fortunate to eat at the Birmingham restaurant once but for me it’s a place I can only visit rarely due to…

Tandoori pasta 👍. Making use of leftovers ❤️
I hate wasting food. I had some tandoori mix left in the fridge which had been marinating for 24 hours. This only had a few pieces of chicken in so I added mushrooms and red peppers to the mix and coated everything with the amazing flavour mix. This mix was allowed to sit for 30…
Chicken Rezala – the perfect Sunday afternoon chill out dish 👍
After attending our first wedding for I can’t remember how long, taking advantage of the free drinks plus our first night without children for four years I couldn’t think of anything better to do on a Sunday afternoon than chill out in the kitchen whipping up food, making marinades, base sauce for the week and…
Amazing BUTTER CHICKEN 👌
As lockdown starts to ease we received an invite to visit friends which we’ve not seen since September 2020. Plans were made to sit in their garden and have a good old catch up whilst the boys all had a good runaround. Now, it would be very rude of me to turn up empty handed….
Tandoori chicken – soooo good ❤️
The cooking is simple, the ingredients are simple to put together, why would you not want to create your own restaurant quality tandoori chicken??? Before I get on….a very simple tip – I use a skewer to cook above a dish to allow the hot air to circulate the meat like a tandoor oven. The…
