Goan Sorpotel with Pea Pilau
The spectacular food eaten in Goa is familiarly Indian but with cooking techniques and ingredients (such as vinegar and chillies) introduced by the Portuguese who ruled there for 450 years. This rich and tangy dish would traditionally be cooked using pork offal but here we’re using the more family friendly chicken and chorizo (similar to Goan sausages known as chourico) - although you can use the authentic liver if you prefer!

You can never have too many Spicery kits, right? But where on earth do you put them all? We solved that problem by repurposing two radiator shelves the previous owner of the house left. Now we have space for 40+ kits neatly and proudly displayed on our kitchen wall! Our current favourite is the Goan Sopotel. It's a hot one but it still has so much depth in flavour.
