Chicken Chasni Recipe

The Chasni – a beloved dish in British Indian cuisine, boasts a rich history intertwined with the cultural exchange between India and the United Kingdom. Originating from the Indian subcontinent, the term “Chasni” translates to “sugary syrup” in Hindi, a nod to the sweet and tangy flavour profile that characterises this curry. Historically, Chasni traces […]

Blooming Onion Bhaji

This one is absolute filth. Pure unadulterated filth. I’ve been meaning to give this a go for some time now but haven’t had the chance but my word, it was worth the wait. The inspiration for this is from a popular American restaurant called ‘Outback Steakhouse’. My grandparents used to live in America so used […]

Lamb Rogan Josh

Lamb Rogan Josh is a popular dish throughout the world, having said to have originated from the Kashmir region in India – like many of our favourite curry house dishes. Now, it’s an increasingly popular dish in curry-houses up and down the country. Originally, the lamb in the dish is typically braised/slow cooked but a […]

Lighter Chicken Tikka Gyros

I’ve probably offended a few Greek people just from the title of this one alone but I regret absolutely nothing. This was truly wonderful. It is very similar to the ‘naan’ kebab I created a couple of weeks back but I think the choice of bread and dressing really does edge this recipe for me. […]

Lighter Chicken Tikka Biriyani Recipe

Now admittedly, I am not overly fussed about rice dishes but I knew I had to try and create something that was meal prep material. The rice in the biriyani is arguably more important than the curry base so it’s paramount that you follow the steps and get it right – if you trust me […]

Lighter Chicken Tikka Kebab Recipe

Now I know some of you may not appreciate a ‘lighter’ or ‘healthier’ recipe because what I may deem as healthier, you may deem as unhealthier. I’ve put a fair amount of weight on in 2023 (haven’t we all though) so I am using the month of January to try and craft some less calorie […]

Chicken Balti Recipe

The Balti. Birmingham’s finest and one of the most notable curries to have been ‘created’ in the UK. Many folk don’t know that ‘Balti’ is the method to how the curry is cooked – not the actual curry! The beauty of it is that you can have pretty much ANY curry ‘balti style’. It simply […]
