One of the things I find difficult with cooking for my 3 boys is that they have very sensitive palettes and dislike the slightest bit of spice in their food. I know that it is just part of growing up, and it will change, but for now I try to make my husband and I a more flavoursome dish on a Friday night.

Spice Kitchen UK kindly sent me a selction of their spices to review. They came packaged in a lovely little pouch and the smell was amazing as they were all freshly ground. I decided to make some spicy potatoes.


You will need:

1 large potato diced
Half a red onion chopped
2 cloves of garlic chopped
1 dessert spoon of Spice Kitchen UK garam masala
1 tin of chopped tomatoes
1 cup of frozen peas




I started by frying half a chopped onion and adding in a diced potato and the chopped garlic.


Next I added the Spice Kitchen UK garam masala, half a tin of tomatoes and some frozen peas. I added the lid to the saucepan and cooked through.



Simple and very tasty, this is great as a side dish.

I think the selection of spices I was sent would make a lovely gift for anyone who enjoys cooking. As well as a variety of Spice gift sets, you can purchase BBQ equipment and cookware. They also have a section of their site with recipe ideas on how to use their spices.
