this is a recipe that my mum and her husband cooked for us while visiting recently. It was good enough that I had to write it down.
Make the curry paste then cook the curry.

Indian Spiced Lamb Racks with Naan and Honey-Lime Yoghurt
We decided to try a new recipe tonight and ended up with this one thanks to Donna Hay with a few minor variations. Unfortunately we were both too hungry to consider taking a picture and we just scoffed it down.
With the use of shop-bought curry paste and naan this is a super quick, easy and delicious meal. Our version, where we decided to make our own Naan Bread was also pretty quick and easy but just required a bit of early preparation to allow the Naan time to rise. The juices from the lamb mix with the yoghurt, chilli and mint, and then soak into the naan. Delicious!!!
We are sure that this one will appear on weeknight menus again in the future.

Basic Pasta Dough
This is a basic pasta dough recipe. The first time I made it I was amazed at how simple it was.

Asian Spiced Lamb Chops
The original recipe for these lamb chops came from some cooking classes that I did many moons ago in Canberra. Since then they have been modified in various ways and most times that I make them there is something that is a little bit different.

Tonight we had them with fried rice and a lovely glass of red and it certainly fit the spot.
Fried rice. The perfect accompaniment for asian marinated lamb chops.

Simple Pizza Dough
One yummy use for this dough. Topped with minced oregano, garlic, basil and coriander, a little olive oil, and some sea salt.
This simple pizza dough is really easy and makes a lovely crispy pizza base. Last time I made it it was used in a simple herb pizza just topped with a fresh herb oil and rock salt, and also in some spinach and mushroom calzone. I need more practice with the calzone so I might put that recipe up when it is perfected.
Stir Fried Fish with Ginger
I was bored with my normal stir fries the other night which have tended to get a little bit the same and mostly resemble thai style so I thought I’d branch out and concentrate on making a more chinese style version. This recipe is the result and if I do say so myself it was pretty damn good.
Barbecue Pork Fillets
Fried Rice served with Barbecue Pork Fillet
These barbecue pork fillets work fantastically with fried rice. This can be a meal all by itself or served as part of a bigger spread of dishes.
I first received a variation of this recipe during some cooking classes that I did many years ago in Canberra. I’m still cooking many of the recipes I learned in this class with slight variations and my thanks go out to Nancy and her fabulous Asian flavours.
Fried Rice
Mish about to demolish Fried Rice with BBQ Pork Fillets
This recipe can be made with nearly any bits and pieces that you have in the fridge at the end of the week and will result in a tasty dish that you can have on its own or use as a side with something else with something else. As you can see from the pictures, this time we enjoyed it with Barbecue Pork Fillets. It’s also a great way to use up left over rice if you have any.
I hope you enjoy and that you are willing to share your own variations.
