I adore Indian food and one of my earliest memories is eating out at an Indian restaurant with my parents. Ever since then everything about Indian food has thrilled me. The taste, the smell, the textures… and what’s great now is I get to create new dishes myself and share them with my little kiddos! 

I am not a huge fan of ginger, but someone gave me some ginger they had left over and instead of letting it go to waste (I hate waste) I decided to try something new. This ginger chicken curry has actually been in the back of my mind for some time now… so I had a play with ingredients over the weekend and this came about.
