This side dish of rice with creamed coconut, chicken stock and garam masala has a rich creaminess I find super addictive. Great with leftover curry and pakora.

This quick and easy chickpea curry is delicious and deceptively filling. It can be vegan or vegetarian, making it versatile and allergy-friendly.

Roasted broccoli and indian spices are a match made in heaven. Seasoned with garam masala, garlic and ginger, these vegi morsels are perfect with raita.

I don't see nearly enough recipes for chicken curry with onion seeds. I have a real fondness for them and for smoked paprika, making this curry another indulgent combo of my favourite things.

This spiced dish with spinach and mushrooms is a real savoury delight to start your day with. It can easily be made vegan too.
