Honey roasted tandoori chicken šŸ‘šŸ»

This is a fantastic dish to introduce eating back outside. Love eating outside full stop. This dish is perfect for the bbq, however, on this occasion I cooked it inside whilst cooking other meats on the bbq. This dish requires two separate marinades, other than that, the oven will do the rest. Both the marinades…

Rustic chicken chasni ā¤ļø

This dish was a little trip down memory lane. Slightly different to the restaurant style version I’d previously written about. This is the ā€˜rustic’ homemade ā€˜one pot’ version. This dish holds a great deal of sentimental value to me. When I was doing my Saturday morning curries this is a dish I had on my…

Homemade ā€˜tandoori’ marinade ā¤ļø

I’ve been making this marinade for a few years now. Once you make the switch to making your own you will not go back to ā€˜shop bought’ versions. This takes less than 5 minutes to with a few hours doing its magic in the fridge ahead of roasting. I’ve been making this that long now…

Vietnamese fish sauce chicken wings !

This dish isn’t for the faint hearted!!! Not the taste or heat from the chillies……but the smell of fish sauce! The fermented fish which is how the sauce is created really causes the kitchen to have a lasting strong smell!! If you can get over the smell, this is quite a nice tasting and cheap…

šŸŒ¶ļøChicken Vindaloo…..potential stingeršŸŒ¶ļø

Very nervous about cooking this dish. All the cooking I do is based around flavour rather than wanting to blow my head off with heat and lose the ability to enjoy the meal. When I see those ‘macho’ guys sitting in a restaurant trying to convince their friends and family they are enjoying the meal…

Chicken pasanda – a curry cooked with red wine…..

A new dish for me. Using flavours and combinations I’d would have never thought would go together. Having read up on the dish, a pasanda curry has been around for a couple of hundred years way before chilli’s and spices were introduced. A couple of plus points about this dish. I’ve never cooked an Indian…

Yes…can you believe it…. I’ve cooked a Korma !!

Yes I’m as shocked as the next person! I’ve never cooked, tried or even thought about cooking a korma from scratch before. Other than children and Stacey from Gavin and Stacey….who orders or eats a Korma ??? However, this was just one of those weeks which I felt I wanted to challenge myself even more…

Indo-Chinese sweet & sour chicken šŸ‘Œ

I love this dish. Proper bowl of comfort food. Who doesn’t love sticky chicken ? Especially when combining Indian & Chinese flavours. One of the other great things about this dish is the cost !! A cheap and cheerful dish, ideal for entertaining friends. Ingredients- 1 kilo of chicken wings, garlic salt, rapeseed oil, cornflour…

Thai inspired chicken & cashew nuts ā¤ļø

As I’m sat in a car park whilst my son is at scouts I just thought I’d catch up with a dish I made a week or so ago. I wanted to cook something which needed nothing buying as I had all the ingredients within the house. I stumbled over this recipe whilst flicking through…
