Sweet and Sour Mixed Fish Curry

In tow with Mrs Demonology round the local supermarket is never my chosen pastime, for my part I would have it delivered but Mrs Demonology is very particular preferring to inspect, feel and caress all that is natural that we purchase on our weekly expedition to spend. spend. spend. That said whilst on this recent sojourn I espied a […]

Shevandi Kada…King Prawn and Baby Onion

Two of my most favourite things in the world prawn and onion and this “nearly” traditional recipe which features both in a symphony of taste. Although you really will have to love onion to fully appreciate this recipe the sauce is unctuous and full of the sweet and sour flavours of the Jaggery and the tamarind with chopped onion making the […]

Getting in with the TINDA

Punjabi Tinda Gravy Curry. Back to dishes of the strictly vegetarian kind, a pond that I have not dipped my toe in for quite some time. I am tempted back by this beautiful recipe that features a vegetable that is not perhaps one you will find on any of the main stream supermarket shelves but […]

CHEMEEN MANGA….. Man go make curry

Fruit in curry , you know it I can’t resist it, and on this occasion I have a fantastic fruit for curry, Mango sweet and juicy that will add that little extra texture and fruity sweetness that is barely a hint on the palate yet acts upon the senses encouraging you to believe that the mango is a vegetable rather […]

Tripping the Sweet Fantastic…… Bengali Tuna kali

I know I’m not alone as someone who eats very little meat, loves fish and suffers with a lack of not enough recipes that feature a different fish taste. However this dish hits the spot offering a curry that is rich with the flavour of onions fried in a caramel oil giving the whole dish a sweetness that I have […]
