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….

Kung Po Chicken with steamed Jasmine rice.
Chinese cooking has fascinated me for years, how flavours can be brought together at speed. My first ever takeaway when at middle school was king prawns and tomatoes with egg fried rice and I can remember it like yesterday. Trying to get my head around the flavours and speed it was cooked in from a…
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…

Thai yellow chicken curry with charcoal noodles
Once you’ve made the Thai yellow curry paste in my previous post then this recipe is a doddle!! The flavour balance is really interesting. This dish does have an Indian influence running through it which is really nice. Highly recommend it, especially if you have made the paste as it’s so rewarding. Again, this recipe…
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…
