Chicken keema shimla mirch ❤️

This dish was perfect for a Saturday night chill in the kitchen due to its simplicity. If you cook Indian food regularly then all the ingredients are staple cupboard items – apart from the chicken mince (which at times can be a pain in the ar@e to get!!). If you can’t get chicken mince then…

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…

Keralan Black Treacle Salmon ❤️

This…..is one of the best Indian inspired dishes I’ve ever made!!! This takes home cooking to another level. The flavours within the dish were insane…yet so simple. Again over the past few days I’ve used two different methods of cooking the fish within one dish, both of which I’ve done before but I wouldn’t have…

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…

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…

Prawn Puri ❤️

I love this dish, one of my favourite starters. I’ve wanted to recreate this dish for a while, last night was my first attempt at this. I do agree with the legend Dan Toombs, you can judge a good curry house on its prawn puri. Ingredients- rapeseed oil, 1 star anise, small piece of cinnamon…

Broccoli curry – Something different 👍

Vegetarian curries are the norm in India. They are a cheap and modest mainstay of society. I’ve cooked quite a few different vegetable curries whilst I’ve been on my food journey as I want to experience as much of the traditional food as I can as I ultimately know I’ll never get the chance to…
