Gulab Jamun or Kala Jam (Waffle Balls)
These are like little waffle balls that sit in and absorb a sugary rosewater syrup. It was first made on the Indian subcontinent, around South Asia. Gulab Juman originated from Luqmat Al-Qadi, an Arabic dessert. This dessert is popular at weddings, Diwali, Eid Al-Fitr and Eid Al-Adha. There a several different types of jamun with different looks and taste. Serve hot or cold.
Indian Chole Aloo Tikki
This is a delicious vegan Indian recipe where vegetables and chickpeas are served over small potato cakes. It works well as a starter for four, or as a vegetarian and vegan main for two. Place the potato cakes on a plate, serve the chickpeas on top, and don't forget the sauces! Recipes for Indian sauces - coriander sauce and tamarind sauce - are on this site. Finally, sprinkle with some fresh coriander leaves and a few thin slices of fresh onion.
Easy Paneer Tikka
Cubes of paneer cheese are marinated in a mix of spices and then grilled. An easy starter or side dish that takes only minutes to cook. It can also be served with roomali roti or made into Paneer tikka wraps for the main course. Serve with cilantro instead of the chutney if preferred.
Besan (Gram Flour) Halwa
If you like the flavour of besan (chickpea flour) in sweets, you will love this halwa. I often make this halwa instead of 'Besan Ladoo' or 'Mysore Pak.' My kids gobble it up even before it has a chance to cool down.
Ras Malai
Ras Malai is cheese dumplings in cream sauce. This is a popular Indian dessert and takes a long time to prepare the traditional way. I came up with some shortcuts and ended up with this recipe which tastes exactly the same as traditional Ras Malai.
Kulfi
Kulfi is a delicious Indian ice cream dessert. I got this simple but delicious recipe for kulfi from my sister-in-law. I have made it several times, and it always gets rave reviews - even the kids love it! Add a few drops of rose water or some ground pistachios for a different flavor.
Chicken Hariyali Tikka
Chicken breast meat is rubbed with an intoxicating paste made with cilantro, mint, and other distinctive flavors. Chicken legs may also be used, or a combination of legs and breasts. This recipe is cooked in the oven, but will work well on the grill. Serve hot with onion rings.
Easy Malai Kulfi
Kulfi is best described as Indian-style ice cream. However, unlike ice cream, kulfi is not churned. This is a fantastic summer dessert. This is a quick and easy version of kulfi. I almost never make kulfi the old way any more.
Chef John's Tandoori Chicken
Tandoori chicken gets its name from the clay oven it is traditionally cooked in, the tandoor. The chicken is marinated in yogurt and an incredibly complex mix of spices, and then roasted in the extremely hot tandoor oven. Don't worry if you don't have a tandoor clay oven sitting in the backyard; a grill will work just fine.
Shahi Tukra (Indian Bread Pudding)
This is a very famous Hyderabadi dish and is a very simple, but rich dessert. It is great for a large dinner party as the recipe can be easily multiplied to make more. It is best eaten chilled. If available, you can add a few drops of Kewra essence to the milk mixture once it has cooled.
Lamb (Gosht) Biryani
This festive lamb biryani dish is perfect for gatherings or celebrations. Biryani is a bit of a project and is time-consuming, but I have never been disappointed with the results of this lamb biryani recipe. It's always a huge hit!
Gulab Jamun
This is a traditional Indian dessert. Spongy milky balls soaked in rose scented syrup. Delicious with fresh cream, Kulfi, ice cream etc. To make it even more fancy, sprinkle gold-leaf on top of each serving.
