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…

Crab meat over broccoli – Regional dish from Guangdong 🇨🇳
A simple yet stunning dish made with everyday supermarket ingredients. This beautiful dish is a regional dish which originates from Guangdong in China and it is exactly what it says. A beautiful sauce mixed with crab meat and finished off the heat with a whisked egg white which thickens and holds the sauce together is…
Spinach meatball curry
Spinach meatball curry ❤️ – recipe taken from ‘30 minute Mowgli’. Anyone who knows me knows that I love the chain Mowgli. Everything about the chain, recipes, ethos & brand values fascinates me. I love recreating their dishes and recipes all written up by Nisha Katona who dream of opening this restaurant became a reality…

Ingredients- makes 3 toasties 2 tbsp of vegetable oil 1 tsp of cumin seeds Between 10 / 20 curry leaves 1 onion finely diced 3…
Tamarind cod curry ❤️
I love the cultural history behind this dish. Tamarind within any dish gives a natural ‘tangy’ hit which I love, tamarind is also used in my favourite dish – pathia. Both have a similar ‘sweet & sour’ hit from the tamarind and sugar with chilli under notes. This dish traditionally is a dish from South…
Bhindi Aloo Dhabi – (okra and potatoes )❤️
This is a new dish for me on many levels. New as in I’d never attempted it and new as in I’d never eaten okra ❤️. I was inspired to find a recipe and create it after hearing stories from a work colleague about it when he was at home in Indian. I could hear…
Chana gosht ❤️ – lentils & lamb
Two of my favourite ingredients in a single dish, especially in a curry. I love lamb in any curry dish. I think the lamb meat, any cut, holds onto spices better than any other meat. Love a slow cooked lamb dish when the meat flakes apart into the curry. Then there is my favourite side…
Goan prawn curry – easy version ❤️
I love Goan food. Goan fish curries are just sensational. If eating in regional restaurants that specialise in Goan food I’ll always order the fish curry. I love this recipe from Madhur Jaffrey from her ‘Curry Easy’ cookbook. The dish itself only has a few ingredients but flavour wise….wow !!! T This dish is ideal…
My love for a ‘dhal’ shines through ❤️ – Red lentil & spinach dhal ❤️
One of my favourite Indian meals – the humble and underrated dhal. A staple meal of millions of houses in India. You can cook and add anything into a dhal. For me it’s either a fantastic side dish or equally amazing main! I’ve spent hours in the kitchen cooking dhals using various lentils & beans….
