This is quite simply a stunning dish. Taking your everyday mushrooms to another level just by doing a simple marinade. I’m finding the more I learn about food and flavour combinations the more I’m understanding food is about planning, preparation and marinades. For the marinade – 2 tbsp of garlic & ginger paste, 1 green…

Balti chicken & black beans 👍
This simple and quick dish is a healthier version than your traditional balti. Balti’s are usually cooked with lots of oil over a high heat so the oils cook off. As this is a healthier version the amount of oil has been reduced and the cooking process is a little slower. Ingredients- 1 tbsp of…

Tandoori pasta 👍. Making use of leftovers ❤️

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…

Full of iron due to the spinach content and the beautiful paneer cheese. Thirdly, such a economic dish. This would feed 3/4 adults for under £3. Yes £3!! Unreal,…
