Thai Green curry
If you squint at the photo below you’ll see that this time around I made this curry with white fish, but I’ve been known to make it with chicken, prawns, leftover shredded ham, basically whatever I have to hand. And no, I don’t make my own curry paste for this. I mean I could if… Continue reading Thai Green curry
Chewy coconut cookies
You had me at chewy. Biscuits could well be my kryptonite, especially when you add coconut into the mix and a cup of coffee.

The rice is incredibly moreish and couldn’t be more straightforward, the thanks there go to my friend Heidy. Thanks Heidy!… Continue reading Cauliflower + chickpea curry with coconut rice
Brazilian Chicken + Prawn Xinxim
This is utterly delicious. You could leave out the prawns, fling in more chicken, or leave out the chicken and whack in some white fish – it’s yummy whichever way you want to serve it. This recipe is from Diana Henry’s wonderful A Bird in The Hand book which is literally a winner winner chicken… Continue reading Brazilian Chicken + Prawn Xinxim
Goan fish curry
Definitely not authentic, but definitely delicious. Whatever firm white fish you have can go in here, prawns if you have them (I didn’t have any this time around), or switch out the fish for cooked chicken, or keep it veggie by flinging in whatever veg you have in the fridge. It’ll still be yummo. This… Continue reading Goan fish curry
