Mussels, Goan style (2-4)

One of the first Indian cookbooks i brought was Madhur Jaffrey’s ” Indian Cookery”, published in 1982 to accompany her TV series of the same name . The paperback cost £4.25 which retrospectively seems quite pricey, but as i spent much of the next few years cooking from it regularly it was no doubt worth it. So a few recipes to follow from my old , stained and well thumbed copy.

These mussels can be served with rice, chips or on their own.

Black Bean Chilli with Avocado Salsa (4)

This chilli recipe is from Delia Smith’s ” Winter Collection” 1995.Many of her recipes can of course now be found elsewhere on line but when Sue’s Recipe Server ( the predecessor  to this site) was set up originally this was not the case. We were one of the very  first British recipe websites back in 1995!
