Something different – Beef Stroganoff ❤️

I fancied cooking something different just so I don’t fall into the bracket of becoming a ‘one trick pony’. I love cooking anything, especially something I’ve never done before. Recently life has been quite challenging so cooking has been a good release. I took this recipe from ‘Rick Stein’s At Home’ cookbook. I had all…

Slow-cooked pork with ginger, chilli & sweet soy sauce ❤️

Love cooking ‘one pot’ dishes. This dish was such a simple dish to make, full of flavour, only a few ingredients which took no time at all to prepare which enables you to go off and do other things whilst it’s doing its magic. I’ve never cooked a dish from Bali so I was quite…

Beef Kofta Curry 👍

My best ever homemade dish ❤️. What a tasty dish this was!! The flavours just kept flowing through each mouthful. One of the best plates of food I’ve ever made. The recipe was taken from Rick Steins – Far Eastern Odyssey. The last book I purchased to complete his collection. I think almost all of…

Sri Lankan Monkfish Curry ( well my rough version).

Whilst I admit the photos don’t do the dish justice…..I have to be proud with how the dish turned out due to a simple fact….I only had a saucepan to make the dish in…..yes you read that correctly !!!!?? You see, I’m on holiday in Cornwall. As a family we’d come prepared to eat in…

Lamb keema saag balti – my version

I just love lamb in any Indian dish. Lamb just takes on the flavours beautifully. Lamb keema is a great example of this. Plus it’s a quick dish that can be made quickly along with being left to cook away whilst you can go off and do other jobs, perfect when your life just doesn’t…

Mango chicken curry ❤️

What an absolutely stunning dish. Amazing combination of spice and sweetness. So much flavour literally from the first mouthful. Such a quick dish to make. By the time the rice had boiled and put aside to steam itself the mango chicken curry was finished. Ingredients- 2/3 tbsp of rapeseed oil, 2 tbsp of heaped garlic…

Chicken Lababdar ❤️

I’ve not posted for awhile but trust me the cooking hasn’t stopped !!! In fact quite the opposite. I’ve been exploring a number of new dishes / flavours and this dish is a stunner. Just like a traditional butter chicken but containing spice due to using Kashmiri chilli powder & green chillies. I personally don’t…

Tofu & beansprout curry ❤️

I’ve previously written about making this tofu curry and I’ve had to blog about it again due to how nice it was. After a long and at times challenging week with work this was the perfect dish to come home on a Friday and shut off with, it’s stages are so simple and the whole…

Delightful Southern Indian take on a chicken curry ❤️

At first I wasn’t too sure how this would taste. Within my houseful we have a couple that aren’t really ‘coconut’ fans so I thought I’d chance it, hence why I’ve never cooked a Korma. As I had Friday off work due to it being half term I challenged myself with this dish as a…

Keralan Black Treacle Salmon ❤️

This…..is one of the best Indian inspired dishes I’ve ever made!!! This takes home cooking to another level. The flavours within the dish were insane…yet so simple. Again over the past few days I’ve used two different methods of cooking the fish within one dish, both of which I’ve done before but I wouldn’t have…
