Once you’ve made the Thai yellow curry paste in my previous post then this recipe is a doddle!! The flavour balance is really interesting. This dish does have an Indian influence running through it which is really nice. Highly recommend it, especially if you have made the paste as it’s so rewarding. Again, this recipe…

Homemade Thai yellow curry paste.
The more I make these pastes the more I enjoy the process. Nothing better than making your own pastes as this gives you total satisfaction, well it does me anyway!!! This paste will compliment the Thai yellow chicken curry about to make. Again, the recipe is taken from the legend that is Dan Toombs. If…
Cantonese-style sweet & sour pork.
Chinese food fascinates me full stop. How simple ingredients can be turned into mouthwatering dishes in seconds / minutes due to having a wok that’s searing hot and cooks with speed. A number of years ago I invested in a decent wok from the Ken Hom range. Has to be decent if he has out…
Vietnamese poached chicken salad with mint & coriander ❤️
I’m not sure where to start with this dish!!this dish is sooo good!!! The recipe is taken from my food hero Mr Rick Stein and his book Rick Stein at home which was written during lockdown. When I leave work on a Friday night I tend to go and park up in the local Sainsburys….
Creamy Black Dhal 👌
This recipe was taken from Dishoom. I first discovered Dishoom when Rick Stein visited the original restaurant on his tv series – Rick Steins India. I have to be honest I didn’t really pay them much attention. Last year for my birthday I was gifted the Dishoom cook book. It’s not like any cook book…
Amazing Hoisin Chicken ❤️
Love hoisin dishes. This recipe is so simple, yet again it’s all about the prep and marinade. Ingredients – 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar, 2 tbsp hoisin sauce, 4 tbsp light soy sauce, 1 tbsp dark soy, 1 tbsp like gut brown sugar, 1 tbsp groundnut oil & 1 tsp of ginger paste. Mix all…
Hyderabad Chicken Curry
This recipe was taken from ‘Anjum’s New Indian’ cook book. At first having read the recipe I was a little unsure but having now made it I can safely say it was delicious. Anjum writes she has done her own take on a classic local dinner party dish, too be fair she has done a…
Traditional Chicken Curry
My go to curry will be usually anything that involves lamb or king prawns. Sadly with the cost of lamb jumping to crazy prices lamb is now off the menu for a while. When cooking a curry dish and I use chicken I only ever use chicken thighs. I find thighs are the best cut….
Kashmiri Mutton Rogan Josh ❤️
Rather than the ‘westernised’ version of a rogan josh this dish is more of your traditional type of dish. So many lovely flavours brought together by the slow cooking of the lamb this is the perfect dish you can do over 24 hours due the marinating of the lamb then place everything in a heavy…
A family favourite – Chicken Chasni.
Love this dish, so does my eldest son. A firm family favourite due due to the amazing sweet flavours of the dish. Branded by Dan Toombs as the ‘new chicken tikka masala’ and after having it a number of times I can clearly see why, a real crowd pleaser. The dish itself brings together ingredients…
