How to Cook dishes from India
Not only Indian cuisine, but the country of
India itself,
is well known for its use of spices which add exciting flavors to many dishes.
With its many regions, languages and religons (many of which
have dietary requirements such as vegetarianism), there is also a great variety of styles
in Indian cooking.
Some popular Indian recipes include:
- Dhokla - This dish is originally from Gujarat in the West of India.
It is a kind of spicy-savory cake made from chickpea paste, which is served with green chutney or
peanut oil.
- Dosa - A large thin pancake from South India.
It is made from rice and lentils, and usually eaten with chutney, pickles, or sambar
(a vegetable stew flavored with tamarind). In non-vegetarian households, dosa are sometimes
eaten with chicken or mutton curry.
- Kheer - A rice pudding made by boiling rice with milk and sugar. Softened almonds
or pistachio nuts are often added, and the dish is often flavored with cardamoms and saffron.
In South India, the dish is known as payasam and is made using
coconut milk instead of milk.
- Murgh makhani (butter chicken) - Originally from the Punjab, this dish consists
of chicken marinated in yoghurt and spices, then grilled or
roasted.
- Pakora - Vegetables (cauliflower, chilli, eggplant, onion, potato, spinach or tomato) or
cheese (paneer) coated with gram flour (flour made from chickpeas) and deep-fried. They are
a popular snack.
- Pani puri - A crispy puri (made from fried dough) filled with a watery spicy mixture
containing chickpeas, potato, and spices.
- Patra - This vegetarian dish from Gujarat is made from rolled up Taro plant leaves with
spices and tamarind paste which are then sliced and fried. Ready prepared patra is available
in tins.
- Phall - A very spicy hot South Indian curry dish.
- Samosa - A popular North Indian snack. It is made from pastry shell, usually triangular
in shape, and is filled with mashed potato, or sometimes cheese (paneer), chickpeas, ground meat,
or mushroom (khumbi).
- Tandoori chicken - A chicken recipe originally from the Punjab. Tandoori chicken
is prepared by marinating chicken in yoghurt and tandoori massala (a mix of spices).
It is traditionally cooked in a clay oven (tandoor), but can also be grilled.
- Vindaloo - A Portuguese influenced curry dish from Goa (which was colonized by
Portugal). It is very spicy hot
and has become a popular Indian dish in
Britain,
Australia, and
New Zealand.
In Goa itself, vindaloo is usually made from pork, but overseas, other meats such as chicken
are often used.

Named one of the Best Cookbooks of Spring 2019 by the New York Times, Eater, and Bon Appétit
"A joy to cook from, and just as much fun to read." —Margaux Laskey, the New York Times
A witty and irresistible celebration of one very cool and boundary-breaking mom’s “Indian-ish” cooking—with accessible and innovative Indian-American recipes
Indian food is everyday food! This colorful, lively book is food writer Priya Krishna’s loving tribute to her mom’s “Indian-ish” cooking—a trove of one-of-a-kind Indian-American hybrids that are easy to make, clever, practical, and packed with flavor. Think Roti Pizza, Tomato Rice with Crispy Cheddar, Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Green Pea Chutney, and Malaysian Ramen.
Priya’s mom, Ritu, taught herself to cook after moving to the U.S. while also working as a software programmer—her unique creations merging the Indian flavors of her childhood with her global travels and inspiration from cooking shows as well as her kids’ requests for American favorites like spaghetti and PB&Js. The results are approachable and unfailingly delightful, like spiced, yogurt-filled sandwiches crusted with curry leaves, or “Indian Gatorade” (a thirst-quenching salty-sweet limeade)—including plenty of simple dinners you can whip up in minutes at the end of a long work day.
Throughout, Priya’s funny and relatable stories—punctuated with candid portraits and original illustrations by acclaimed Desi pop artist Maria Qamar (also known as Hatecopy)—will bring you up close and personal with the Krishna family and its many quirks. |

Curry is Salmon with Garlic and Turmeric. Curry is Grilled Chicken with Cashew-Tomato Sauce. Curry is Asparagus with Tomato and Crumbled Paneer. Curry is Lamb with Yellow Split Peas, Chunky Potatoes with Spinach, Tamarind Shrimp with Coconut Milk, Baby Back Ribs with a Sweet-Sour Glaze and Vinegar Sauce, Basmati Rice with Fragrant Curry Leaves. Curry is vivid flavors, seasonal ingredients, a kaleidoscope of spices and unexpected combinations. And 660 Curries is the gateway to the world of Indian cooking, demystifying one of the world's great cuisines.
Presented by the IACP award–winning Cooking Teacher of the Year (2004), Raghavan Iyer, 660 Curries is a joyous food-lover's extravaganza. Mr. Iyer first grounds us in the building blocks of Indian flavors—the interplay of sour (like tomatoes or yogurt), salty, sweet, pungent (peppercorns, chiles), bitter, and the quality of unami (seeds, coconuts, and the like). Then, from this basic palette, he unveils an infinite art. There are appetizers—Spinach Fritters, Lentil Dumplings in a Buttermilk Coconut Sauce—and main courses—Chicken with Lemongrass and Kaffir-Lime Leaves, Lamb Loin Chops with an Apricot Sauce. Cheese dishes—Pan-Fried Cheese with Cauliflower and Cilantro; bean dishes—Lentil Stew with Cumin and Cayenne. And hundreds of vegetable dishes—Sweet Corn with Cumin and Chiles, Chunky Potatoes with Golden Raisins, Baby Eggplant Stuffed with Cashew Nuts and Spices. There are traditional, regional curries from around the subcontinent and contemporary curries. Plus all the extras: biryanis, breads, rice dishes, raitas, spice pastes and blends, and rubs.
curry, n.—any dish that consists of either meat, fish, poultry, legumes, vegetables, or fruits, simmered in or covered with a sauce, gravy, or other liquid that is redolent with any number of freshly ground and very fragrant spices and/or herbs. |
