Singapore noodles with cauliflower and King Prawn
A healthy and quick mid week tea. Not technically one of mine but something I will definitely make again with different ingredients! Original recipe was found on BBC food but they use chicken alongside the prawns. You could always do that too or substitute the prawns for chicken if you prefer. For a Veggie version …
Baked Tarka Daal – Cauliflower, Split peas and Chapatti
I was at the library the other day getting kids books and realised that they have loads of cook books in there! As I am running out of room in my house I thought I would get a few out and get a few new recipes for the blog! To be honest when you buy …
Chicken Shawarma Kebab with salad and sauce!
I love junk food and love a good kebab but you can easily make your own and not feel as guilty! I made a batch of these on New Years Eve and people have been asking for the recipe ever since. The naan breads I use look cheap and cheerful but these are the …
Chilli and Chicken Ramen
I have been eating a lot of soup recently to try and keep the pounds off but quite frankly – ITS BORING!! It doesn’t even feel like eating so I had a think about how I could make it more interested and remembered a Ramen I had once at Wagamama. I looked at a few …
Chinese Style Beef with Green Peppers and Pepper and Honey sauce.
I am back! Don’t get much time for blogging and cooking over the summer as I try not to spend too much time at home at the weekends but now its getting dark and cold my kitchen is beckoning! I went for a Chinese meal at weekend ( Phoenix City – Stalybridge) and it was …
Kung Pao Cauliflower
Since starting my blog another benefit I have discovered is seeing other people’s food blogs too! There are a few I follow regulary and this recipe stuck out immediately and I have been wanting to try it for a while. I love spicy Szechuan food and I am a big fan of cauliflower and am …
King Prawn Yakisoba
A dish I always order at Wagamama although I think theirs is with chicken. You could add chicken instead of prawn to this though or both if you are feeling generous! This is an easy 15 minute tea and not too bad for you (just don’t use loads of oil) I doubted the sauce in …
South Indian Chicken Curry
This is a pretty simple and effective curry that anyone could make! When I first started trying to make a curry I used to use way too many spices by just chucking them all in, then I found a really complicated recipe that took hours to prepare. With lots of trial and error I have …
10 minute Puttanesca with King Prawns
A tasty quick and simple mid week tea that has left a lovely taste in my mouth! You can also have this without the prawns for a nice vegetarian dish. This is a variation of a recipe I read in my Olive magazine. Why people buy jars of horrible tasting pasta sauce is beyond me …
Hot and sweet dipping sauce.
This is a sauce that I have mentioned in a previous recipe that I saw in Olive magazine but I now regard the magazine one as a cheat version. I made this to serve with my popadoms and samosas this weekend. The sauce I made was.. (Cheats version) 2 tbsp Sriracha chilli sauce or Sambal Oelek …
