I have created two blogs to share my passion of food and fashion with you. The idea is not to give you accurate recipes or tell you what to wear but to share my day to day cooking and shopping experiences with you. I hope you will get new ideas from my blog and that you will share your experiences with me. I have always been creative with everything in my life be it food, clothes or career. I like trying new things,and I am always up for trying things once in my life.

Roast dinner with a salad in wasabi dressing

Normaly I love having a roast dinner but can't be bothered because of all the non-sense with timing issues. But this alternative is lovely - Nigella Express Way try it- it's worth it.

Poussin x 2 ( whole )
3 sweet poatoes chopped into large chunks
1/2 tsp of cinnamon
1/2 ground cumin
olive oil

Place the chicken and sweet poatoes in a large roasting pan drizzle with oilve oil and sprinkle the cinnamon and cummin powder.
Roast in a over for 45 mins at 225 degrees.

For the salad:
Watercress
Sugarsnaps
Peas

For the dressing:
4 tbs of vegetable oil
1 tbsp of wasabi paste ( you can also use mustard or horseradish)
Core salt
Shake it all in a jar and pour it over the salad

Serve with the roasted chicken and potatoes with some lemon wedges.

Chicken Butter Masala

Diced Chicken Breast dusted with flour and pan fried, onion, garlic, ginger, chillies all cooked in hot oil with chili powder, mango powder, coriander, cumin seeds and can of chopped tomatoes. Left to simmer until dark red in colour and the oil starts floating on the side ( 10-12 mins). The browned chicken is then added to the mixture with some roasted cahewnut paste and double creme. This is then left to simmer for 10-15 mins and garnished with crushed pistachios and fresh coriander leaves. Serve it hot with nan bread, rice and pickled onions. Better than a take away!!
