Having been previously been a pescatarian fish for me is my preferred food to eat. Also my food hero being Rick Stein I’m naturally swung towards fish. I’ve cooked several versions of this dish previously, one being from Rick’s book – India. This recipe was taken from a local author and her new & 1st…

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…
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…
The classic Mowgli prawn curry
What a joy of dish this was to make !! A simple dish which took less than 20 minutes to make with very little preparation. A ‘sweet’ tasting dish due to the perfect marriage of ingredients. I’ve mentioned it before, the more Indian / Asian cooking you do the more you build up your larder…
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…
Egg & lentil curry
I haven’t posted in a while. Life has taken over but the cooking hasn’t stopped. If anything the cooking has increased trying to find the ultimate way of shutting off. I cooked this dish after I’d worked in Leeds for the day which is as 230 mile round trip leaving early and getting home late….
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…
King Prawn Madras 🌶
I’ve never ordered a madras or cooked one. I’ll be honest, I have always been put off with the 🌶 symbols on menus. I’ve always had the opinion of ‘flavour over heat’. After cooking this dish my opinion hasn’t changed. For me, this was far too hot. I’ll admit the flavours were there but the…
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…
