Tandoori beer can chicken
This is a dish I’ve wanted to cook for a while, and no better time to cook it on Father’s Day. Nice to put some music on and step into the kitchen to chill out and shut off. The dish itself was very easy to make, getting a chicken to stand up in the oven…
Cod with spiced cabbage
I love discovering new dishes! This dish was like ‘wow’ !! So much flavour it’s unreal, again with very few ingredients, as they say – ‘less is more’. The recipe is a modified version of a dish by ‘Mother India’ whom I discovered during a work trip to Glasgow. The original recipe used halibut, but…

Keema Pav ❤️
I love a good keema, I’ve cooked many keema’s. Full of intense flavour and a wonderful low cost dish. A traditional street food dish of Indian and chicken keema pav is one of the best you can get. A proper comfort food dish for the whole family. I’ve cooked the vegetable version a number of…
Broccoli Pakora’s
This is a simple and quick recipe for a beautiful starter or side dish. I was cooking two very different chicken curry dishes for an evening in with friends. I thought that ‘chicken pakoras’ would just be too much chicken to indulge on so I came up with this alternative – Broccoli pakoras….and wow!!!! Simple…
