This Sri Lankan chicken curry is best made with chicken on the bone and make sure you stir in your coconut milk to taste at the end. This is a marvellous dish to serve with stringhoppers, really any excuse to eat a hopper is a good one.

This is one way to wow with zucchini. Stuff your Lebanese zucchinis with minced beef and spices or if you're on the lookout for a meat-free version then replace the beef with chickpeas. These make great yoghurt dippers, as well! Get this recipe here.

One pan, so much flavour! Paella mixta impressively combines meat, seafood, spice and rice and you'll want to dig deep for that socarrat (crispy rice). Hot tip: Calasparra is a low-starch, short-grain rice and is the best rice to use for this paella; it can absorb heaps of liquid so it bursts with flavour.
