Yes I know……it’s been too long since I’ve posted. Life in 2026 has thrown so many curve balls it’s unreal, and to be honest, I wouldn’t know where to start listing them all. Something for certain, no matter what has been thrown in my direction, food has remained my ‘go to’ place for relaxation &…

Cod with spiced cabbage
I love discovering new dishes! This dish was like ‘wow’ !! So much flavour it’s unreal, again with very few ingredients, as they say – ‘less is more’. The recipe is a modified version of a dish by ‘Mother India’ whom I discovered during a work trip to Glasgow. The original recipe used halibut, but…
Spinach meatball curry
Spinach meatball curry ❤️ – recipe taken from ‘30 minute Mowgli’. Anyone who knows me knows that I love the chain Mowgli. Everything about the chain, recipes, ethos & brand values fascinates me. I love recreating their dishes and recipes all written up by Nisha Katona who dream of opening this restaurant became a reality…
Mumbai toastie 😊
Something very delightful about this dish. Some might think it’s a lot of fuss to create this dish, but trust me, it’s well worthwhile. So many flavour combinations it’s unreal. Ingredients- makes 3 toasties 2 tbsp of vegetable oil 1 tsp of cumin seeds Between 10 / 20 curry leaves 1 onion finely diced 3…
Tamarind cod curry ❤️
I love the cultural history behind this dish. Tamarind within any dish gives a natural ‘tangy’ hit which I love, tamarind is also used in my favourite dish – pathia. Both have a similar ‘sweet & sour’ hit from the tamarind and sugar with chilli under notes. This dish traditionally is a dish from South…
Bhindi Aloo Dhabi – (okra and potatoes )❤️
This is a new dish for me on many levels. New as in I’d never attempted it and new as in I’d never eaten okra ❤️. I was inspired to find a recipe and create it after hearing stories from a work colleague about it when he was at home in Indian. I could hear…
Chana gosht ❤️ – lentils & lamb
Two of my favourite ingredients in a single dish, especially in a curry. I love lamb in any curry dish. I think the lamb meat, any cut, holds onto spices better than any other meat. Love a slow cooked lamb dish when the meat flakes apart into the curry. Then there is my favourite side…
My love for a ‘dhal’ shines through ❤️ – Red lentil & spinach dhal ❤️
One of my favourite Indian meals – the humble and underrated dhal. A staple meal of millions of houses in India. You can cook and add anything into a dhal. For me it’s either a fantastic side dish or equally amazing main! I’ve spent hours in the kitchen cooking dhals using various lentils & beans….
Honey roasted tandoori chicken 👍🏻
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…
Chicken saag karahi
A beautiful and stunning plus simple dish to make…..however…..the dish is named so because of the pan it’s cooked in…..a karahi pan. If you you don’t have one of these traditional Indian cast iron pans, well my friends with just be a chicken saag 😀. The dish is named after the pan. The karahi pan…
