Indian cuisine consists of a variety of regional and traditional cuisines native to the Indian subcontinent. Given the diversity in soil, climate, culture, ethnic groups, and occupations, these cuisines vary substantially and use locally available spices, herbs, vegetables, and fruits. Indian food is also heavily influenced by religion, in particular Hinduism and Islam, cultural choices and traditions. Indian cuisine has influenced other cuisines across the world, especially those from Europe (especially Britain), the Middle East, Southern African, East Africa, Southeast Asia, North America, Mauritius, Fiji, Oceania, and the Caribbean.

    Recipe Tamarind (Imli) Chutney

    I posted this on another forum and thought it might go down well over here, too.

    Recipe Buttermilk chicken korma

    Buttermilk gives a lovely light tang to this mild aromatic curry. If you want to make a spicier dish simply add some hot chilli powder, to taste. I used Kashmiri chilli powder which is very mild. The toasted spice mix makes twice as much as is required but will keep well in a screw top jar for...

    This is a rather rich creamy tasting dish. Fresh turmeric has a wonderfully subtle fragrant flavour which infuses into the lamb. The tangy mango powder offsets the richness of the sauce. If you can’t obtain mango powder you could use tamarind paste (adjust the amount, to taste). Ingredients...

    Recipe Chicken Pasanda

    If you order Chicken Pasanda in a UK Indian restaurant, you would expect a mild creamy curry, thickened with almonds. In fact you can make the curry as spicy as you like and it will take quite a lot of chilli because the almonds tend to temper the heat. Here I used black peppercorns as well as...
