Sharing Our Family Recipes
Hey, I'm Dan!
I'm the author of The Curry Guy cookbook series and blog. I love bold flavors from around the world! This blog features my favorite recipes from Europe, the Mediterranean, America and Latin America. Some I've been making since childhood. Enjoy!
Hey, I'm Caroline!
As Dan's wife, I've spent the last 10 years helping him perfect hundreds of spicy recipes. We've had so much fun and now want to share our favorite non-curry dishes. I'll be focusing on recipes I've loved and recreated from Spain, France and across Europe. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
Hey, I'm Joe!
I'm a creative arts and technology teacher in the UK, including food technology. Growing up in The Curry Guy household, I ate amazing food. Now with a family of my own, I want to do the same. See what I'm making on this blog!
Hey, I'm Shannon!
I'm also a teacher in the UK and have always loved to cook. As part of The Curry Guy family, I've enjoyed trying Dan's food and learning to create and style my own favorite dishes. I'll share them with you here!
