I’ve been making this marinade for a few years now. Once you make the switch to making your own you will not go back to ‘shop bought’ versions. This takes less than 5 minutes to with a few hours doing its magic in the fridge ahead of roasting. I’ve been making this that long now…

Beetroot curry – yup you read that correctly !!! 👍🏻
This dish has fascinated me for many years. A popular dish in India and Sri Lanka. It’s fascinated me due to the fact you are taking a very humble ingredient ‘the beetroot’ to be the star of the show! Many many versions of this dish have the beetroot cooked in coconut milk to have a…
Goan fish curry – delicious ❤️
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…
Lamb keema shimla mirch – simplified version ❤️
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…
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…
Chicken curry with cardamoms – heavenly ❤️
This is a wonderful, basic flavoursome dish for the whole family. Simple cooking methods, very few ingredients which makes the whole process easy from start to finish. As you would expect, taking the recipe from Madhur Jaffrey’s cookbook called ‘Curry Easy’ says it all. The recipe is stripped back and so easy to follow. Whilst…
Lamb bhuna ❤️ an alternative way of cooking this classic 👍
Love making this dish. This method again is different to your usual restaurant/ takeaway version as it consists of no base sauce, you make your own sauce ! Again, it’s a simple recipe to follow and can be cooked in the same time it usually takes your local takeaway have it ready. Ingredients- 4 tbsp…
Yes…can you believe it…. I’ve cooked a Korma !!
Yes I’m as shocked as the next person! I’ve never cooked, tried or even thought about cooking a korma from scratch before. Other than children and Stacey from Gavin and Stacey….who orders or eats a Korma ??? However, this was just one of those weeks which I felt I wanted to challenge myself even more…
Bombay Aloo 👌
I cooked this dish part of a multi dish evening with friends. If I’m honest it was meant to be a side dish but it actually ended up being the star of the show. Not only did it feed 4 adults it fed another friend who took some home the following day. Ingredients- 4 tbsp…
Indo-Chinese sweet & sour chicken 👌
I love this dish. Proper bowl of comfort food. Who doesn’t love sticky chicken ? Especially when combining Indian & Chinese flavours. One of the other great things about this dish is the cost !! A cheap and cheerful dish, ideal for entertaining friends. Ingredients- 1 kilo of chicken wings, garlic salt, rapeseed oil, cornflour…
