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.

You’re invited to a party where the food and entertainment are both in Technicolor. It’s “dinner and a movie” in this vibrant, beautifully photographed tour of Indian food and films.
Â
Indian cuisine and Indian cinema (known as Bollywood) share much in common – bold colors and flavors with plenty of drama. But to the uninitiated, they can seem dizzying. Let Sri Rao be your guide. As one of the only Americans working in Bollywood, Sri is an expert on Indian musical films, and as an avid cook, he’s taken his mom’s authentic, home-cooked recipes and adapted them for the modern, American kitchen.
Â
The popularity of Indian food has grown immensely in recent years – and for good reason. It's perfectly suited for people who love bold flavors, as well as those looking for vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free meals that don’t skimp on taste. But as Sri points out in Bollywood Kitchen – you’ve probably never tasted real Indian food. Home-cooked Indian-American food is surprisingly simple to make, using ingredients readily available in your local grocery store.
Â
In this book you’ll find dinner menus and brunch menus, menus for kids and menus for cocktail parties. Along with each healthy and easy-to-prepare meal, Sri has paired one of his favorite Bollywood movies. Every one of these films is a musical, packed with dazzling song-and-dance numbers that are the hallmark of Bollywood, beloved by millions of fans all over the world. Sri will introduce each film to you, explaining why you’ll love it, and letting you in on some juicy morsels from behind the scenes.
Â
Bollywood Kitchen is as much a beautiful coffee table book as it is a cookbook, filled with gorgeous film photographs and colorful tablescapes. It’s a unique treasure for Indian food lovers, as well as fans of world cinema. |
