This dish might not look nice to the eye but wow. This regional dish from the southern region of Kerala is synonymous with the area due to fresh fish and spices and yes this dish certainly does have a nice kick from the spices. I did hold back with the chilli powder as I was…

Chicken Rezala
I made this a couple of weeks ago, the last dish of note that I’ve cooked due to a number of distractions. This dish itself is a wholesome dish packed with flavour, it’s a take on a tikka masala but with more of a punch! Ingredients- 3 tbsp of rapeseed oil, 2 tbsp of garlic…
Simple everyday Katsu curry sauce ❤️
One of the biggest fears in the kitchen is making your own sauces. People are put off as they think it’s too complicated or it takes too long…especially when we live in a society rushing around a million miles per hour. Trust me, making your own sauces as far more rewarding!! Take the time and…
Lamb Jalfrezi – the perfect way to unwind on a Friday night ❤️
What can I say about a Jalfrezi that hasn’t been said before ? Nothing…..as this is now the UK’s most ordered takeaway meal. I’ve made Jalfrezi’s that many times now I think I can make it now with my eyes closed. Just like any profession, the more you do the better you become almost robot…
Beef Panang Curry
I made this a week or so ago and finally catching up as I didn’t know what to write about this this. Let me explain. With a lot going on I’ve not been focused enough to blog my thoughts, plus who cares about my thoughts…right? Thai food fascinates me. I do think though with Thai…
Penang curry paste from scratch 👍
Well, I keep going back and trying to make Thai inspired food. I’m determined to crack this and win over people in my household. It’s difficult when I’m the only person in the house that will eat Thai food and flavours but that’s not going to stop me as I’m keen to keep learning. People…
Paneer in tomato & cashew gravy – National Curry Week 3rd – 9th October
This dish is taken from Atul Kochhar’s book ‘Curry Everyday’. I’ve mentioned before that this book is purely vegetarian with over 100 recipes to choose from. I cooked this dish purely because I had all the ingredients in the house plus I had some paneer that needed using up. There are two parts to this…
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…
Tofu curry…..something different….and what a delight.
As a family we are used to meat substitutes. We’ve taken on ‘non meat months’, along with ‘no meat weeks’ plus I’ve been a pescatarian before ( three years) removing meat completely from my diet as a way of trying to improve my overall health. With the cost of living being the buzz word at…
A winter warmer – Beef stew .
As the days become darker and colder I decided to spend the afternoon in the kitchen making this winter warmer. With the mens footy on the international breaking I had the WSL on my phone via SKY (Chelsea v Man City) and Paul Weller on Vinyl…what could go wrong, sounds great yeah??? Wrong. Sadly you…
