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…

Punjabi paneer & peas 👌
Recently I’ve been eating too much meat and having recent purchased a new cook book from someone I’ve been following on Instagram I thought this was the perfect recipe to make on a warm weekday night. I’ve many paneer recipes and cooked a number of different versions of this recipe but it’s good to have…
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…
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…
Pan fried salmon & shrimp balti ❤️ – a nice dish to celebrate having fish on Good Friday
I’ve struggled making a balti now for a few year. I’ve just not been able to get the flavoursome thick balti gravy right. This simplified recipe helped me crack it. Really pleased with the outcome. I’ve modified the dish to remove the meat content. Replaced the meat with fish substitutes and swapped the chicken stock…
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…
Lamb Saag – alternative way of cooking this beautiful dish 👍
I love a saag dish. Over the years it’s a dish I’ve been drawn towards more. I’ve always been a fan of spinach so to be able to cook this and be the main feature of a curry fascinates me. This method again is different to the restaurant/ takeaway version as it uses no base…
Chicken pasanda – a curry cooked with red wine…..
A new dish for me. Using flavours and combinations I’d would have never thought would go together. Having read up on the dish, a pasanda curry has been around for a couple of hundred years way before chilli’s and spices were introduced. A couple of plus points about this dish. I’ve never cooked an Indian…
A beautiful lamb rogan josh ❤️
This my curry lovers is a beautiful dish. A completely different way to cooking your British restaurant/ takeaway favourite. Your restaurant/ takeaway classic flavours are built up and use a base sauce, this dish has two steps using the same pan and the flavours come from a wonderful mix of spices and reusing the stock…
‘House black dhal’ a favourite of mine ❤️
I love cooking dhal’s. You can pack a lot of flavour into a humble lentil. Restaurants like Dishoom & Mowgli do brilliant versions. Both require slow cooking methods which for me is great as you can start the process then go off and do other things around the house. The version on this blog has…
