A delicious paneer recipe to make at home from ” Romy Gill’s India ” by Romy Gill. She says its also a great choice for packed lunches or summer picnics: cut a pitta in half, turn each half into a pocket and fill with paneer to enjoy with pickled onions and salad on the side.

A fragrant stew with plenty of broth from ” Alice’s Cook Book” by Alice Hart. Marinate the chicken for as long as possible- preferably the day before. To make a vegetarian version use vegetable stock, omit the fish stock, up the soy sauce to 5 tablespoons and replace the chicken with 500g marinated fried tofu pieces and 300g shitake mushrooms. It will only need 30 minutes cooking time. Serve with some sticky rice and stir fried greens.
