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…

A beautiful lamb rogan josh ❤️
This my curry lovers is a beautiful dish. A completely different way to cooking your British restaurant/ takeaway favourite. Your restaurant/ takeaway classic flavours are built up and use a base sauce, this dish has two steps using the same pan and the flavours come from a wonderful mix of spices and reusing the stock…
Chicken tikka masala – Family favourite ideal for little ones ❤️
This is a beautiful dish for a number of reasons. 1. Full of flavour. 2. Brilliant way to introduce little ones to Indian food. 3. Simple recipe. 4. One pot cooking which is always a plus!! This isn’t how I would normally make this dish but due to my eldest son’s love for the dish…
Bombay Aloo 👌
I cooked this dish part of a multi dish evening with friends. If I’m honest it was meant to be a side dish but it actually ended up being the star of the show. Not only did it feed 4 adults it fed another friend who took some home the following day. Ingredients- 4 tbsp…
Indo-Chinese sweet & sour chicken 👌
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…

Tandoori chicken Madras 🌶️🌶️
Thought I’d do a little update as I’ve not written for a while due to a number of distractions 😞. Just taking a moment to write this ok a Sunday morning with a cuppa in bed. When it comes to curries, I’m all about flavour over heat. I do like to enjoy the flavours that…
Goan Beef Kofta Curry – absolute delight of a dish ❤️
I loved cooking this dish, I actually think, this is my best dish to date. The taste and flavours were unreal with many different layers of flavour which just keep coming with each mouthful. It’s such a simple dish to make which makes it even better. What can be better…..a curry that you can make…
Pork Vindaloo – 👎👍
Part of learning is failing. Sadly in life I’m used to failing. This was such a dish sadly. I think it’s important to showcase your failings otherwise you will never learn. I knew instantly my mistakes whilst cooking this dish. I’m more upset about the waste of money. When money is precious you can’t afford…
Thai inspired chicken & cashew nuts ❤️
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…
