This mash is full of flavour and can be served alongside some grilled tofu, halloumi, fish or chicken or as part of a selection of vegetable dishes. The recipe is from ” Ottolenghi Flavour” by Yotam Ottolenghi and Ixta Belfrage.
Another recipe from ” Ammu” by Asma Khan. The gravy is quite thick so its very good served with rotis, but you can also serve it with rice. It can also be made with lamb or beef, but you need to extend the marinating and cooking times.
These Kababs can be cooked on a barbecue or grilled indoors. The chicken could also be cooked without skewers spread out on a foil covered baking tin under a preheated medium grill. The recipe is from ” Ammu” by Asma Khan and she recommends serving them with her Spinach with Spiced Yoghurt and her Special Potatoes.
This is a Pashtun dish originating from the North West Frontier between Afghanistan and Pakistan. Its popularity spread into the cities of Pakistan and then to certain families in Dhaka in Bangladesh who would serve it on special occassions. This version is from ” Ammu” by Asma Khan
A quick and delicious from chef Clare Smyth ,owner of Core. I found the recipe in ” Chefs at Home” , a book produced to support Hospitality Action during Lockdown .
A favourite way with chicken from ” Mezcla” by Ixta Belfrage. The chicken can be marinated and kept in the fridge up to 2 days ahead but bring it back to room temperature before cooking.
Here’s another recipe from Ixta Belfrage’s ” Mezcla”. You can serve it as the main event, or it goes very well with her Roast Chicken Curry or Mole Short Ribs. You can use less of the chilli or just use a pinch of chilli flakes if you want a milder heat.Left overs can be reheated the next day- either pan fry or put in a 170 C Oven, 150 Fan and warm for about 10 minutes. Serve with plenty of butter on the side.
