Simple, beautiful cooking. These are the only words needed to describe this dish. Dish is similar to a tikka masala but with more heat running through it. I keep making the same mistake though sadly over & over again…..no beer in the house to enjoy it with !!!!!! This dish is usually a quicker dish…

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…
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…
Agra ginger chicken ❤️
My son who was 11 at the time of writing this post asked me for a Indian inspired Sunday lunch! Now I’m not going to miss the chance to do this!! This dish was the perfect way to bring him into the Indian food fold due to it being packed with flavour and goodness with…
Mowgli ‘angry bird chicken’ with left over dhal & Jalfrezi
This dish was inspired from my first ever visit to Mowgli’s in Birmingham New Street station. Just couldn’t believe I’d never been there before, the menu being based on street food just blew me away, to the point I went out purchased their book the following day!! I’ve already made several dishes which have really…
Balti chicken & black beans 👍
A very simple recipe using the leftovers from my curry orders. I always have a tin of black beans in the cupboard along with butter beans, cannelloni beans & red kidney beans as these can be used to bulk out any meal. This recipe only requires a handful of ingredients and takes about 15 minutes…
Sichuan chilli tomato chicken & steamed rice
This dish may not feed the eye but it certainly fed the stomach. Still getting to grips with basic Chinese cooking but this dish was a delight to make and eat. The recipe again was taken from Ching-He Huang’s – Ching’s Fast Food cook book. As I’ve previously mentioned this cook breaks down Chinese cooking…
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…
Punjabi chicken curry
A traditional dish from India. A dish that brings all the flavours together brilliantly. I really enjoy cooking traditional dishes as this helps me understand the balance of spice & flavours. You can then bring this to the westernised dishes that I’m trying to perfect. Traditional recipes aren’t as complex as you’d think…if you get…
