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…

Sri Lankan Monkfish Curry ( well my rough version).

Whilst I admit the photos don’t do the dish justice…..I have to be proud with how the dish turned out due to a simple fact….I only had a saucepan to make the dish in…..yes you read that correctly !!!!?? You see, I’m on holiday in Cornwall. As a family we’d come prepared to eat in…

Chicken Rezala & homemade dhal ❤️

Simple, beautiful cooking. These are the only words needed to describe this dish. Dish is similar to a tikka masala but with more heat running through it. I keep making the same mistake though sadly over & over again…..no beer in the house to enjoy it with !!!!!! This dish is usually a quicker dish…

Chicken keema shimla mirch ❤️

This dish was perfect for a Saturday night chill in the kitchen due to its simplicity. If you cook Indian food regularly then all the ingredients are staple cupboard items – apart from the chicken mince (which at times can be a pain in the ar@e to get!!). If you can’t get chicken mince then…

Mango chicken curry ❤️

What an absolutely stunning dish. Amazing combination of spice and sweetness. So much flavour literally from the first mouthful. Such a quick dish to make. By the time the rice had boiled and put aside to steam itself the mango chicken curry was finished. Ingredients- 2/3 tbsp of rapeseed oil, 2 tbsp of heaped garlic…

Chicken Lababdar ❤️

I’ve not posted for awhile but trust me the cooking hasn’t stopped !!! In fact quite the opposite. I’ve been exploring a number of new dishes / flavours and this dish is a stunner. Just like a traditional butter chicken but containing spice due to using Kashmiri chilli powder & green chillies. I personally don’t…

Tofu & beansprout curry ❤️

I’ve previously written about making this tofu curry and I’ve had to blog about it again due to how nice it was. After a long and at times challenging week with work this was the perfect dish to come home on a Friday and shut off with, it’s stages are so simple and the whole…

Goan fish curry ❤️

After a recent visit to Mowgli I was blown away with the flavours of this dish. I’ve had a number of Goan fish curries from a number of restaurants but nothing as tasty as this!! Goan curries usually have a hot and tangy heat running through them however this was tangy and sweet….and I now…

The classic Mowgli prawn curry

What a joy of dish this was to make !! A simple dish which took less than 20 minutes to make with very little preparation. A ‘sweet’ tasting dish due to the perfect marriage of ingredients. I’ve mentioned it before, the more Indian / Asian cooking you do the more you build up your larder…
