We have always looked upon lamb biriani cooked in a thermal cooker as being our signature dish. It was the first thing I cooked in a thermal cooker and since then have made it many times for parties, evening diners and Sunday lunches. It is always popular with everyone who tries it.

Last June we made a video on how to cook this dish and posted it on You Tube along with a number of others and it has turned out to be the most popular recipe video on Mr D’s Kitchen You Tube Channel. The nearest to it is another great dish Mussaman Duck Curry .

A mussaman curry is one of the most delicious dishes. It is thought to have arrived in Siam with the first Persian envoy to the court of Ayuthyia in the sixteenth century. Mr D has adapted this recipe for the Shuttle Chef from one published in Fresh Magazine and they have kindly given their permission for us to use it. This unusual version of Thai mussaman curry is highly seasoned with tamarind and will delight you and your guests.

This is a great recipe from a new friend of mine Stephanie Harris-Uyidi who is the founder of  The Posh Pescatarian Seafood Sausage Company is based in Orange County California.

Stephanie has been a pescatarian for more than ten years so really knows how to prepare and cook seafood.

I have been following her site Posh Pescatarian for some time and asked her if she would kindly let me use some of her recipes on my site. During our conversation Stephanie showed an interest in thermal cooking so I sent a Mr D’s Thermal Cooker over to her and this is the first recipe she has developed for it.

Oxtail is no longer the cheap cut of meat that it used to be but it really is worth trying this method of cooking it. Like many similar cuts of meat oxtail needs long slow cooking and Mr D’s Thermal Slow Cooker is the ideal way to do this.
