This is a recipe based on one that Stella made on holiday in Vietnam so it is a joint effort after I put in a few extra bits. On first glance this looks like a lot of ingredients and a lot of hassle but to be honest it’s easier than you would think. Of…… Continue reading Vivacious Vietnamese stew

Neta’s Naughty Nasi Goreng Style Rice
The photos haven’t come out very clear on this one but trust me, it’s yummy. Nowadays you can actually just buy the ready-made nasi goreng paste in most supermarkets but this home-made version is a lot fresher and healthier and gives you a good old smack around the face. I have made this with…… Continue reading Neta’s Naughty Nasi Goreng Style Rice
Virtuous veggie Massaman curry
I’m afraid that this one never quite made it to a photograph as it was scoffed before I got chance. It really is yummy and you don’t miss the meat at all. Of course you could add meat or maybe prawns or fish of choice but it is lovely and light as it is. Use…… Continue reading Virtuous veggie Massaman curry
Cheery Chinese Chicken with Awesome Asian Coleslaw
This dish was inspired by Paul Rankin who served the coleslaw with sesame fried brill on Saturday Kitchen. I decided to serve it with the chicken but to be honest it would work with many things. I have cut out the sugar and bad stuff but it is still delicious. I genuinely believe it will…… Continue reading Cheery Chinese Chicken with Awesome Asian Coleslaw
FUNKY FISH AND SILLY SPINACH CURRY
This started life as Nigella’s Golden Egg Curry but soon evolved into fish and spinach as the sound of egg in a curry didn’t go down very well. I cooked it with all 3 and it was lovely you just need to try and keep the egg yolks runny and the fish lightly poached. Roughly…… Continue reading FUNKY FISH AND SILLY SPINACH CURRY
Sumptuously Show Stopping Stuffed Squid Asian Style
I have to say this one is very much a joint effort with Stella as she had previously done something similar a few weeks ago. In fact it’s the first time I’ve ever tackled a dish like this as I always thought it would be too much like hard work but as long as…… Continue reading Sumptuously Show Stopping Stuffed Squid Asian Style
FINGER LICKING KRAZY KICKING KOREAN CHICKEN WRAPS
Trust me on this one you will never look at a chicken nugget in the same way again. These chicken bites are bursting with flavour and crunch and the spicy Korean sauce packs a real punch that slaps you round the face and leaves a lovely tingle on your tongue. The idea was born out…… Continue reading FINGER LICKING KRAZY KICKING KOREAN CHICKEN WRAPS
SASSY SPRING ROLLS WITH PRAWNS AND CRISPY VEGETABLES
Many years ago, 1996 to be exact, I did a short Chinese Cookery Course and learnt how to cook these. The recipe has developed over the years and largely depends on whatever ingredients I have in the fridge or basically how fat I’m feeling at the time. Ha ha. I know there are many versions…… Continue reading SASSY SPRING ROLLS WITH PRAWNS AND CRISPY VEGETABLES

Totally Tingly on the Tongue Thai Green Curry (try saying that with your mouth full)
I can’t take much credit for this one as it is one I saw on Jimmy and Jamie’s Friday Night Feast. As always I have made a couple of little tweaks but I’m sure it will be perfect as it is. It would be equally as good with pork, seafood, Quorn or just veggies. I…… Continue reading Totally Tingly on the Tongue Thai Green Curry (try saying that with your mouth full)
