Bish’s Burning Mango Salsas
A long time ago I was in Darwin for work and had a few extra days to explore a place I now think of as one of my favourite Australian cities. One of my fondest memories was going to the markets and sampling food that was really unique – fusions of different cultures and tastes…

Cooking with Super Hot Chili Peppers
A chili expert on Facebook gave me this great tip as I am afraid of cooking/eating any of the super hots that I am growing. See my chili post series here. He said suggested that I dry any super hot chili whole and store them away. You then add a whole dried chili to the…

I used this recipe originally from http://www.tarladalal.com/ (this site is amazing FYI) and I am going to experiment a bit with the amount of garlic and sugar . I also blended it…

Rick Stein’s Garam Masala
I use Rick Stein’s garam masala in so many dishes it isn’t funny. This uniquely south asian spice blend is earthy in taste and aroma. The blend is so verstile though and enhances the dishes of many cuisines. Sure, you could buy a garam masala from the shops. MasterFoods makes a really good one that…
