This Rogan Josh recipe is adapted from a great recipe book, 'Indian - a collection of over 100 essential recipes' by Parragon, which leapt off the shelf and into my basket during one mammoth trek through TK Maxx’s heaving aisles. Yes, I know I need another recipe book like...

Sometimes, just sometimes, you can get very lucky indeed in the half-price section. But you have to be careful. Don’t get fooled by the shiny red or yellow stickers proclaiming their products’ bargain status. ‘Slashed’ from €2.59 to €2.39 is not a bargain, especially as it’s going out of date...

Tesco special offers are out today. And it's meat week. Well no, not officially, but they’ve got some decent offers on all things meaty, fishy and er, chicken-y.
Starting with their half price dinner, which is just half price spuds, wine and a roasting meat. Except this week it’s not...
