‘General Tso’s Chicken ❤️
So, the new Chinese cooking revolution has started. Craving education and I’ve found the book to do so. I’ve been following Chin & Choo Taylor on social media for a while. I love their attitude towards cooking, making it fun and look simple whilst stripping back cooking to educate everyone how to make our favourite…
A celebration of high class seafood cookery in Cornwall & Devon ❤️
I just thought I’d share some amazing seafood dishes and venues with you all, these places and chefs are seriously good! This trip has inspired me massively!! Another reason I’m writing this is because I’m passionate about fish and continue to be disappointed that over 70% of fish caught within the UK is shipped abroad….
‘Railway lamb curry’
Railway lamb curry.A beautiful historical dish created for the first class dining carriages from the British Raj ruling days of India. A dish that was created as the British couldn’t handle spiced food in Indian so this dish was invented and made like a stew. A really thick flavoured gravy which had several layers each…
Indian inspired king prawns with dill & ginger – heavenly ❤️
I just love discovering new dishes. As you might have gathered due to the nature of my cooking I use & love coriander. I actually love all herbs as they can lift any dish. One particular favourite of mine which I feel is under used is dill. Being more of a fish eater over meat…
Tandoori beer can chicken
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…
Cod with spiced cabbage
I love discovering new dishes! This dish was like ‘wow’ !! So much flavour it’s unreal, again with very few ingredients, as they say – ‘less is more’. The recipe is a modified version of a dish by ‘Mother India’ whom I discovered during a work trip to Glasgow. The original recipe used halibut, but…
Spinach meatball curry
Spinach meatball curry ❤️ – recipe taken from ‘30 minute Mowgli’. Anyone who knows me knows that I love the chain Mowgli. Everything about the chain, recipes, ethos & brand values fascinates me. I love recreating their dishes and recipes all written up by Nisha Katona who dream of opening this restaurant became a reality…
Tamarind cod curry ❤️
I love the cultural history behind this dish. Tamarind within any dish gives a natural ‘tangy’ hit which I love, tamarind is also used in my favourite dish – pathia. Both have a similar ‘sweet & sour’ hit from the tamarind and sugar with chilli under notes. This dish traditionally is a dish from South…
Chana gosht ❤️ – lentils & lamb
Two of my favourite ingredients in a single dish, especially in a curry. I love lamb in any curry dish. I think the lamb meat, any cut, holds onto spices better than any other meat. Love a slow cooked lamb dish when the meat flakes apart into the curry. Then there is my favourite side…
