One of my students from my Indian Pakistani cookery class was a trained UK chef She shared this excellent fried fish recipe with me very easy to make and just like shop bought in the United Kingdom

This is a specialist dish very popular in Pakistan and the best recipes are found in roadside shacks There are many versions of this dish this one is a family recipe that we have been making for years

Although in the UK a korma is a timid curry and for those that don t like hot and spicy food a korma prepared by a Pakistani or Indian will be a curry with sweet spices like cardammom and cream or yoghurt

I would have to begin with the most popular curry in the UK This is a standard recipe but how it turns out will depend on the authenticity of the spices and how well you prepare the base Once you master this you can vary it by adding spinach potatoes

Pilli Pilli means chillies in Kiswahili in other parts of the World this dish is called Piri Piri chicken This recipe is a mixture of two recipes one from my dear friend in Nakuru and the other from my male cousin in Nairobi

This is a recipe from one of my cousins residing in Saudi Arabia it is very easy to make and can be eaten hot or cold

Another recipe from my Wembley cousin she took one of our old recipes and made it into a new innovative roast

My cousin in Wembley made this for us and 25 others as a main dish during Ramadan It is very simple and does not require much marinating
