My dad loves this recipe. Bought the Friday night curry as part of his birthday present. Rajahmundry chicken pulao with mango pickle. Delicious and a big hit from us all!

Being Coeliac I have to be careful of what I eat. Before I got diagnosed I used to love KFC but now I have found a great alternative. Easy to follow recipe and being able to eat cornflour is a bonus. Great taste and I can’t recommend it enough.

Decided to try the Chicken 555 tonight and WOW! It’s going to be a new regular in our house. Paired it with chips, raita and salad and decided to try making some Safron Parathas from my lucky dip box as well. Better than a takeaway and faster!
