After recent times, kitchen time was needed. I’ve not felt like posting for a while as I’ve not done much cooking, however this little gem cooked last night sparked a little flame inside. I’ve cooked a more complexed version of this dish before but to try and light the flame again I made this simplified…

Paneer curry ❤️
Love paneer, love flavoursome curries….love this dish. This simple yet stunning recipe taken from a lady called Suki Pantal who I’ve followed on Instagram for a while and this is from her first cook book – Garnish with Garam Masala. a regional dish from when she was living in Delhi. The only change I made…
Old fashioned Delhi style lamb bhuna ❤️
I haven’t posted for a while as I’ve had too many personal distractions. However, the cooking has helped. I’ve put a lot of focus into cooking authentic dishes whilst still cooking ‘westernised recipes’. The ‘authentic’ dishes have a completely different make up and method to the westernised dishes which I find more appealing. Westernised dishes…
Korean salmon & broccoli tray bake ❤️
This beautiful simple dish has to be one of the easiest things I’ve made yet one of the tastiest!! Again, looking to remove the meat content and focus on fish. A simple marinade, humble ingredients, then roasting in the oven, as simple as it gets, especially as the marinade consists of 5 ingredients!!!! The star…
Punjabi chickpea curry ❤️
Whilst this dish may sound complicated it really isn’t. Like most dishes, it’s easy to get put off by processes but this dish is so simple to make and so rewarding. I’ve cooked a few different versions of a chickpea curry and most authors offer a slightly different regional take on them, they are all…
Simple…yet stunning chilli con carne ❤️
Well….at the age of 48 as I write this….I’ve just cooked my first chilli con carne from scratch!! I love this dish! Had it so many times over the years but I’ve always stayed away from making it myself. To help me relax I decided to bite the bullet and have a go myself. I…
Beef in oyster sauce ❤️🤣
This week has all been about focus. I’ve upped the ante with regards to fitness and working my heart. From Tuesday morning until Friday evening I’ve walked 32 miles (70,000 plus steps) to work and back each day as the weather has changed here in the UK. After doing the exercise daily by the end…
Chicken & banana korma – it will blow your mind !!
Chicken & banana korma !!Yes you read that correctly!! Recipe taken from Nisha Katona’s cookbook called ‘Bold’. The whole books concept is about taking familiar recipes and being ‘Bold’ by stepping outside of the box….it has my name written all over it. I’ve never been one for ‘doing what’s always been done’ or ‘that’s the…
Simple & easy Pathia ❤️
I’ve blogged before about my love for a pathia. Pathia was my first introduction to Indian food aged 19 from a little restaurant in Coleshill. It’s one of those food memories you’ll never forget. I love this ‘hot, sweet & sour’ dish. A perfect mix of flavours basically created by Kashmiri chill powder, sugar, mango…
I love a Risotto ❤️ Especially when you turn a Sunday roasts leftovers into a beautiful bowl of food ❤️
I’ve made risotto’s for a number of years now. I love the simplicity of the dish, building layers of flavour as you go. I’ve always stuck to a simple method taken from the late great Gary Rhodes, obviously you can’t go wrong what this god-like-genius did! The emphasis around this dish – making the most…
