The flavour of this curry is targeted to land somewhere between a Dhansak and a Pathia, a hot and sweet hit with a slightly sour finish.

All the measures are, of course, approximate – any good cook knows a pinch of this and that to taste makes for the best outcome.… Continue Reading

This recipe is a twist on the Triple Cheese Tandoori Mushrooms, almost the same, however using a little twist of tomato and way more garlic Can you have too much garlic?.

This recipe lists between 2 and 4 medium / large peppers for filling – What I tend to do is make a load of filling, and if I don’t use it all, freeze it for next time, as it’s easy to defrost and fill some peppers to pop in the oven.… Continue Reading

This Tandoori chicken dish is super easy to make, and only takes around 10-15 minutes prep in total. You may have had something like this from an Indian Takeaway, maybe labelled as a Shashlik (Although that is cooked slightly differently), however probably down simply as Tandoori Chicken.

Serves 2. Don’t be put off this recipe for marinade times, you can do anything from 1 hour to 24 hours, obviously the longer the marinade the better, but don’t be pressured into thinking it has to be an age, it doesn’t!… Continue Reading

Where do I start with this one!? This is a recipe of two halves which complement each other perfectly. Depending on how you serve this, it can be a LCHF dish.

On one half you have perfectly seared and cooked butterfly chicken, and on the other a creamy zesty sauce. I suppose you could do this with chicken pieces, or bashed-flat chicken breasts, but I thought the butterfly style would be best!… Continue Reading
