We are huge lovers of Indian food in this house , even the kids love the flavour of the spices ! I won’t lie , I always adapt recipes to suit ourselves either time wise or to suit what we have in the fridge / press ! Life would be very boring if we all followed the same thing 😉 I think that is why I love to cook so much , you can add , remove and play around with recipes to make them your own .

You can use a Tikka Masala powder if you do not have all of the various spices , I just like to mix and match to our tastes and it is really cheap to stock up on spices and they last for ages ! This cost €4.39 for 4 adult portions and 2 kids portions – this can be frozen and kept for a day you are too busy ! I would not recommend that you freeze the rice .
