Off the back of the signature dish thread, thought would be fun to share some recipes. I bloody love cooking but my skills are restricted to pastas, risottos and a mean cheese on toast.

Any suggestions for things I can try guys?

My brother in law is a chef and gave me this recipe for a curry sauce. He didn't give quantities as he works in bulk, so alter the spices to your taste.

Onions

Peppers

Mushrooms

Veg oil

Cumin

Gara masala

Curry powder tikka

Garlic

Ginger

Chilli powder

Fresh coriander

Chopped tomatoes (I use 2 tins)

Sugar/sweetener

Tomato ketchup/purée

Veg or chicken stock

Sweat the onions, mushrooms & peppers with the spices

Add the tomatoes, stock and sweetener

Add diced meat of your choice (I use chicken)

Cook on a low heat for 20/30 mins or until ready

I still need to get the spices right as I like a bit of a kick. I started with a teaspoon of each and working my way up.

C cooks amazing meals but I've yet to taste any of them. But they look good!

I also make a great lasagne

Yeah was going to say I'd probably start a teaspoon and gauge it from there.

Hmm I've not made lasagne in a while, I do a very nice Spag Bol though.

My problem is I rarely work from a recipe and tend to improvise

The seasoned oil i always put in when I cook my onions. I use vegetable oil but I'll explain how to season it. Well worth it though for the flavour.
