South Indian Vegetable Kurma

Porotta Kurma, Vegetable Kurma, Coconut and fennel curry,

1 porotta kurma please!  That’s my standard tiffin order in the south, and with good reason! Porotta kurma is one of those classic dishes that just w.o.r.k.s. South Indian porottas are really famous; they’re soft, they’re flaky and they have more layers than a Wachowski siblings movie.  Porotta beef fry is a Kerala classic but […]

Beetroot burgers have long been a favourite of mine ever since I visited this small cafe in Prague that did the absolute meatiest, meatless vegan burger made of – you guessed it, beetroots.

Peanut Butter Curry with Tofu and Spinach

Peanut Butter Curry with Tofu and Spinach

Peanut butter is a fantastic ingredient, lending itself to both sweet and savoury dishes.

While I’ve made […]
