The SANE kitchen
Come and read some chef’s best recipes! Add in your own if you like.
Disclaimer / I’m not a trained chef.
Ingredients are mostly pantry staples, it’s 2024 we are all too broke for that fancy stuff. A lot of the fresh veg comes from my garden.
Also pretty basic nothing fancy, trying to make use of what we have and waste less. Also, play with the quantity this is really up to you, mine won’t be that accurate cause sometimes I cook for 2 sometimes for 4 sometimes I put things in freezer.
Starting with recipe 1 in the reply posts below
Please add your own too! 😊

Re: The SANE kitchen
- Mushrooms
- Any kind of pasta
- Lemon
- Butter or olive oil, I find a healthy dose of butter way better
- Garlic
- Cheese for topping
1. Boil the pasta,
2. Sautee the mushies in with the butter and garlic (seperate to the water and pasta, please like come on we don’t want an oil and water fire)
3. Grate the lemon rind down into the mushroom mix.
4. Mix all together, get the lemon and squeeze the lemon juice onto the pasta
5. Serve with cheese
So simple but so delicious - note, the garlic is very important.

Re: The SANE kitchen
Lamb and Yoghurt Curry
Ingredients
1 Tbsp butter
2 tsp oil
250 g lamb, cut into
2 cm pieces
1 brown onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp garam masala
½ tsp sweet paprika
Pinch chilli powder
½ cup chicken liquid stock
2 Tbsp Greek-style yoghurt
2 Tbsp pouring
Method:
- Melt butter and fry the lamb pieces until browned. Transfer to a plate.
- Add oil to the pan. Reduce heat to low. Add the onion and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until soft. Uncover and cook for 5 minutes or until golden.
- Add the garlic and ginger, and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until soft.
- Add the cumin, ground coriander, garam masala, paprika and chilli powder. Cook for 2 minutes or until aromatic.
- Add the lamb and stock. Cover and cook for 15 minutes.
Uncover and cook for 20 minutes. - Stir in the yoghurt and cream. Simmer for a further 10 minutes or until the lamb is very tender and the sauce thickens.
- Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with fresh coriander and serve with flat bread.
Note: I added carrots, potatoes, and peas. I also cook it for much longer until the meat and vegetables are cooked. Add potato and carrot an hour or two before dishing up, and then peas just before until cooked through.

Jamie Oliver's Easy flatbreads
Flatbreads:
175g self-raising flour, plus extra for dusting
½ teaspoon baking powder
175g natural yoghurt
Garlic and herb butter (optional)
1 clove of garlic
a bunch of fresh soft herbs, such as flat-leaf parsley, tarragon, basil, dill
20 g unsalted butter

Method:
- Add all the flatbread ingredients to a mixing bowl and mix together with a spoon, then use clean hands to pat and bring everything together.
- Dust a clean work surface with flour, then tip out the dough.
- Knead for a minute or so to bring it all together (this isn't a traditional bread recipe, so you don't need to knead it for long - just enough time to bring everything together).
- Put the dough into a floured-dusted bowl and cover with a plate, then leave aside.
- If making the garlic butter, peel the garlic cloves and crush them with a garlic crusher.
- Pick the herb leaves onto a chopping board and finely chop them, discarding the stalks.
- Melt the butter in microwave then stir through the garlic and chopped herbs, then set aside.
- Roll into four balls and flatten out with a rolling pin.
- Heat up a frying pan, put the rolled-out dough, and cook on both sides until golden brown.
Note: You can double the recipe to make more. The four flat bread are a bit small.
