So the cooker decided to blow up on me last week (the first time I was attempting a new dish I might add). I have a microwave and a toasted sandwich maker to use for now.

Enter Rani.

I moaned that there is only so much microwave cooking one can do until cooking dinner for me and my better half only takes seven minutes. I know this is a god send after a busy day at work, but I like cooking. It’s theraputic and satisfying once you have managed to create a home cooked meal.I have unplugged the microwave this evening and mum is literally ‘whipping’ up an indian meal in an hour before I have to go home. I’m still in awe of what she can do with a sack of potatoes, her spice tin and a handful of coriander!. I can smell the food now and my mouth is watering. Ok so I didn’t cook tonight but you’re not allowed to so no to your mother.

Smells good

and plate it up...serve with freshly boiled rice

Mouth-watering food in less than an hour. This dish may go on the menu for our first supper club.
