Rogan Josh

While this recipe calls for a lengthy list of spices, you won’t need to take a trip to an Indian store to get them – they’re even sold at my local grocery store! Lamb Rogan Josh Rogan Josh is one of the heavy hitters at Indian restaurants, a firm favourite alongside Butter Chicken, Tikka Masala and Tandoori. I’d say Daal is up there too, but let’s be honest – if you can only order one curry, it probably won’t be daal (unless you’re with a vegetarian)....

Sesame Noodles

Sesame Noodles There actually aren’t that many noodle dishes that I know that are truly better served at room temperature rather than warm. But this is one of them. Which makes this terrific for taking to gatherings or for work lunches. OR as a side dish that can be made well in advance of serving – one less thing to heat up when you’re ready to serve a crowd, yay!...

Shakshuka Middle Eastern Baked Eggs

I’ll let you in on a trade secret – usually, the photos you see of so called baked eggs aren’t really baked at all. Shakshuka When eggs are baked, the thin film of egg whites covering the yolks becomes opaque, fogging up the beautiful bright yellow yolks. “This is a catastrophe!” said some food magazine editor, somewhere. “We cannot have foggy yolks! They must be bright yellow. This must be fixed!...

Slow Cooker Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches

This recipe is sponsored by A.1. Sauce. All opinions expressed are my own. I grew up always having A.1. Sauce in the house. We put it on chicken, pork, beef….whatever we could use an excuse to use this delicious sauce. I admittedly even just licked it off my plate. It’s not just for steaks and hamburgers. People have been using it for forever to add flavor to just about everything....

Slow Cooker Roast Beef

Whilst I adore putting the slow cooker on the in the morning and having a meal pretty much waiting for me in the evening, one of the things I’m not keen on is when everything tastes the same. It’s all been cooking together for hours, and those flavours have been mingling, which means every mouthful can taste like the last. B-O-R-I-N-G! I don’t want greeny-brown green beans and potatoes that have no texture or bite to them....

Steamed Spinach With Garlic And Lemon

Sometimes the simplest recipes are the best ones! And this one is ready in less than 10 minutes. Steaming is a gentle cooking method that I really like. And while steamed vegetables may not sound as exciting as other cooking methods (roasting, sauteing), they can be really good. Examples? Sure! This recipe is excellent, as are my recipes for steamed carrots and steamed cabbage. I do love my sautéed spinach recipe - it’s very flavorful....

Sticky Chicken With Vegetable Fried Rice

“Take 10 minutes out of your weekend to prepare ahead so you can get this dinner on the table in a snap during the week.” You don’t ordinarily think of fresh stir fries as make ahead, freezer friendly meals. But that’s exactly what this Sticky Chicken With Vegetable Fried Rice is. To be honest, I’ve never seen a recipe like this anywhere before. Marinating the meat and popping it into the freezer is nothing new....

Swiss Mushroom Burgers Quick Easy

Excellent use of portobello and BBQ Flat Mushrooms. Can’t find giant mushrooms? These are amazing made with small mushrooms too! Swiss Mushroom Burgers I love a good burger – and I don’t discriminate between meat and vegetarian as long as they tick all my Burger Boxes: juicy; meaty; satisfying; and you get burger pattie in every bite and not just bread. It’s so disappointing when you get a giant hamburger bun with a tiny burger pattie inside....

Thai Fish Cakes

Surprisingly easy to make at home – all you need is fish, red curry paste, egg, rice flour and fish sauce. Blitz, make patties and pan fry! Thai fish cakes If I order an appetiser at a Thai restaurant, 9 times out of 10 it will either be Thai Fish Cakes or Thai Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce. And both of these are irritatingly pricey at Thai restaurants for what you get!...

Vindaloo

Serve with naan for mopping and yogurt to cool that fire. Vindaloo Beef Curry Vindaloo is a traditional tomato-based curry gifted to the world from Goa, a sunny pocket of paradise on the Western coast of India. The origins of Vindaloo can be traced back to the time when Portugal ruled Goa in the sixteenth century. In fact, the name Vindaloo comes from carne de vinha d’alhos, a Portuguese dish of pork, wine, and garlic....

10 Delicious Soups To Warm You Up This Autumn

Tell me, are you the sort of person who: I’m definitely in the first category. Stemming from childhood, my mum always made sure there was plenty of gravy on the table. Going round to someone’s house for dinner, or out for a meal and being faced with a ’little bit of jus’ that we’ve all got to share makes me seriously uncomfortable. That teeny tiny gravy boat is staring at me with just a little dribble left in the bottom....

Asian Side Salad

Asian Side Salad Unlike many Western cuisines, there are actually not that many “side salads” in Asian cuisines. There are pickled vegetables and small vegetable dishes that make up part of a larger banquet. And in many South East Asian cuisines, you’ll often find dishes like Thai Fried Rice are served with some plain, undressed wedges of tomato and cucumber which provide welcome freshness and juiciness. But there’s actually not that many side salads that are quick to throw together to add greens into a meal....

Beef Goulash

I thought it was time to pull this one out of the archives again as it’s so flippin good. Tender chunks of beef in a thick tomato and pepper sauce - spiced with beautiful smoky paprika (don’t go easy on the paprika now - this stew can take plenty). I’ll happily admit - this isn’t a 100% authentic Hungarian goulash. Traditional goulash, I’m told, is more of a soup that doesn’t rely on flour for thickening....

Cajun Blackened Fish

Cajun Blackened Fish A few months ago, the uber talented Kathleen from Hapa Nom Nom did a guest post and shared Blackened Fish Tacos.

Charred Grapefruit And Ginger Fizz With Chilli Syrup Mocktail

Judging by the fishbowl-sized gin and tonic I was cradling at the weekend, I think it’s fair to say I’m not. I’m not much of a drinker generally – one or two at the weekend (unless it’s girl’s night, then it’s a different story) is enough for me. Chocolate is my biggest vice. Maybe I should have given that up for January (yeah right!). I do know what it’s like when everyone else is drinking and you’re not though....
