I cooked this dish part of a multi dish evening with friends. If I’m honest it was meant to be a side dish but it actually ended up being the star of the show. Not only did it feed 4 adults it fed another friend who took some home the following day. Ingredients- 4 tbsp…

Indo-Chinese sweet & sour chicken 👌
I love this dish. Proper bowl of comfort food. Who doesn’t love sticky chicken ? Especially when combining Indian & Chinese flavours. One of the other great things about this dish is the cost !! A cheap and cheerful dish, ideal for entertaining friends. Ingredients- 1 kilo of chicken wings, garlic salt, rapeseed oil, cornflour…
The simplicity of a beautiful parsley sauce ❤️
It’s my aim for 2024 to focus in on basic cooking skills. Whilst I’d say I’m competent making Indian based dishes I need to improve or take my home cooking to another level. Last night I put this dish together off the top of my head due to ingredients we had left over from Christmas….
Rajasthani Red Meat 👍
This another dish that I’ve had chance to experiment with due to finishing work early for Christmas. Again the dish has been taken from Madhur Jaffrey’s ‘Curry Easy’ cook book. When the dish is served in the Rajasthan desert region of India, its colour, comes mainly from the hot ground chillies as its fiery red!…
Fried whitebait, the Sri Lankan way and my homemade chilli jam ❤️
The beautiful thing about finishing work early for the Christmas break is that I find myself having extra time in the kitchen. I’ve always wanted to try a ‘spicier’ version of the traditional whitebait you have here in the UK. This dish didn’t disappoint. The recipe was taken from Madhur jaffrey’s ‘Curry Easy’ cookbook. I…
Lamb keema saag balti ❤️
Love this dish. That’s all I have to say !! Proper family favourite, amazing how you can take two humble ingredients and take them together another level just by understanding flavour combinations. The real star or the show…spice mix call panch pooran. I mixture of many seeds put together to enhance any dish. I’ve made…
Tandoori chicken Madras 🌶️🌶️
Thought I’d do a little update as I’ve not written for a while due to a number of distractions 😞. Just taking a moment to write this ok a Sunday morning with a cuppa in bed. When it comes to curries, I’m all about flavour over heat. I do like to enjoy the flavours that…
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…
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…
