So glad to see that you're posting again and thanks so much for all your lovely recipes. I live in the Highlands of Scotland very very far away from any Indian shops (pasta is in the World Food section in our supermarket and bananas and grapes are tropical fruit!)But I order spices online and we rear our own mutton and live by the sea where we catch lots of fish and shellfish. I love being able to use recipes which aren't traditional for me!
Anonymous : Many thanks for following my blog :) I am fascinated by your life, where you live by the sea and catch lots of fish and selfish. It must be great to have fresh catch to cook. Do try my recipes and i would love to hear the outcome :)
