Dinner Diary
http://dinnerdiary.org
We like food and we like taking pictures of food so it seemed natural to pair the two things together and create a blog about them. We’ve been doing it for over two years now and still try to post almost every day.
Writing about food encourages us to be creative and try new things. The blog is also a handy reference tool for our favourite recipes and a great inspiration when we’re stuck and don’t know what to cook. We also get to buy lots of interesting plates and bowls so that things look good in the posts!
Our philosophy is to post almost everything that we cook, and we find that the blog is as useful for providing a diary for ourselves as it is to show other people new things that we’ve cooked. So some dishes are featured quite frequently, for example we’ve had a penchant for Thai curry and stir fries over the past few months.

Indian Cooking – Rogan Josh, Chana Dal, Spiced Cauliflower and Naan Bread
We recently bought Madhur Jaffrey’s Indian Cookery as we felt that we needed a decent Indian cookbook and reference rather than just searching for recipes online if we fancied cooking Indian dishes. The book has turned out to be just what we ...
Lancashire Hot Pot
We used to watch Coronation Street when I was growing up. If you watched it too then I’m sure you’ll remember Betty’s hotpot, the only dish they ever seemed to serve in the Rover’s Return. It was always very grey looking an...
Mexican Rice
We are continuing to cook Mexican dishes from the Rick Bayless book that we bought recently. This one looked like a fairly quick and easy dish to cook. It turns out that it’s quick and easy if you happen to have some salsa already made, be...
