Seared Sea Bass with fennel & radish
This is a wonderful dish to have on a summer’s evening, as it isn’t too heavy and it can be ready in under ½ hour.
Whole Stuffed Fish
This is an ancient recipe of stuffing a whole fish with spices, sealing it in an earthenware pot, burying it in the ground and covering it with natural heat fermenters. I have had to change the recipe slightly to replicate this style of cooking for the modern day. Perfect for a dinner party. You can click here to see how to make it.
Roasted Chilli & Carrot Soup
When chillies are roasted their flavour completely changes, and it is sweet as well as hot.
Chunky Paneer Masala
Paneer is a hard Indian cheese made from whole milk. It’s not that difficult to make yourself, but it’s even easier to buy it, and it can be found at most supermarkets in the cheese cabinet.
Spiced Sea Bass with Chunky Cumin Pea Puree
A winning combo of pea puree with bass. This is one of my favourite recipes to make mid week as it’s quick and easy to scale up if you need to cook for more than 2!
Thai Chilli Ginger Mussels
Mussels are cheap and available almost everywhere. They taste wonderful with a whole host of flavours but I love them with fiery ingredients like chilli and ginger.
Chickpea Chorizo Fritters
These perfect little snacks are packed full of flavour. The smokiness of the chorizo works wonderfully with the toasted spices.
Sweet & Sour Lentils with Roasted Aubergine
These lentils get their unique sweet and sour flavour from tamarind. Known as the ‘date of India’ it has both a sticky sweetness and also a tangy sourness. The aubergines are slightly crispy and add a beautiful texture against the silky lentils.
Coriander Garlic Chicken
This recipe is full of my two favourite ingredients; coriander and garlic. My masala is unconventional as I use chicken stock to make my sauce but you can substitute it for water, although it won’t taste as good.
Chilli Cheese Sablés
Sablé is the French word for ‘sand’ and is a biscuit – almost like shortbread. It has the most delicious, crumbly texture which should only be baked until light golden brown.
