Outstanding fish pie from the king of the sea !!!
We all comfort food! For me a fish pie, shepherds pie, cottage pie and homemade lasagna fall into this category. Also, they bring fond food memories back of my childhood and my mums cooking. Over the years I’ve made many different versions of fish pies but for me this was the best. So many layers…
British Beef Raj Curry 🍜
I love cooking this dish from Rick Stein’s ‘India’ cook book. It’s a great dish due to the simplicity & the flavours. I have to be honest, it’s my go to comfort food, perfect to put on and leave to cook whilst pottering about. The flavours are insane considering you are only using 3 ground…
Classic lemon tart !
This for me is stepping outside of my comfort zone. Think I wanted to prove I could do it whilst having an unwinding Sunday. Simplicity is the key with only using 5 ingredients but as I found out a few stages that I found a little tricky, The proof as they say is in the…
Slow-cooked pork with ginger, chilli & sweet soy sauce ❤️
Love cooking ‘one pot’ dishes. This dish was such a simple dish to make, full of flavour, only a few ingredients which took no time at all to prepare which enables you to go off and do other things whilst it’s doing its magic. I’ve never cooked a dish from Bali so I was quite…
Spicy fried potato curry with paneer cheese & peas 👍
This is a lovely dish. The flavours burst through giving you a beautiful tasting plate of food. It’s a fantastic way of lifting potatoes to another level, but the surprising element of the dish….is the peas. Trust me, try the dish and you’ll understand what I’m rambling about. Ingredients- 4 tbsp of vegetable oil, 250g…
Aubergine curry with tomatoes, ginger & fennel seeds ❤️
Another dish taken from Rick Stein’s – Far Eastern Odyssey cook book. The recipe is nice and simple. Another contributing factor I picked this recipe as all I needed to purchase was the aubergines which cost 80p each. I had all the other ingredients in the house plus the mint that was used I picked…
Beef Kofta Curry 👍
My best ever homemade dish ❤️. What a tasty dish this was!! The flavours just kept flowing through each mouthful. One of the best plates of food I’ve ever made. The recipe was taken from Rick Steins – Far Eastern Odyssey. The last book I purchased to complete his collection. I think almost all of…
Chicken Vindail with dhal – belter of a dish.
Another new dish for me. Taken from my food hero’s cook book – Rick Steins India written after his successful TV series of the same name. A few reasons I was drawn to this recipe – 1. a cheap dish to make as I only needed to buy the chicken thighs on the bone which…
Newlyn fish pie
I wanted to cook a dish which was a bit of a traditional nod towards the jubilee. A classic dish written by my food hero and took me back to Cornwall. The recipe was taken from Rick Steins – Fish & Shellfish cook book. Having met Rick a few years ago in Padstow the book…
