My friend Angela introduced me to this colourful and healthy all in one daal from Rukmini Iyer’s ” The Green Roasting Tin”. It was so good i had to cook it myself a few days later, omitting the cashews and serving with sausages. But it is also very good on its own, served with naan or rice. I was a bit doubtful that the lentils would cook properly in the oven, but they were perfect.
This is from Rick Steins ” Coast to Coast”. The curried potatoes are only quite mildly spiced and he suggests serving this as a breakfast dish. You could always serve some Tomato Kasundi alongside.
Another version of this Goan speciality from Madhur Jaffrey’s ” Ultimate Curry Bible”. You can substitute small mussels or cockles for the clams, depending on what is available and your budget. Serve with rice.
Tamarind Rice is a speciality of the high caste Brahmin people of Tamil Nadu and a high popular dish in Das Sreedharan’s Rasa chain of restaurants. The recipe is from his book “Fresh Flavours of India.”
This hot and sweet curry is traditionally served with yellow rice and a dal. Its origins are among the Irani community living in Bombay, and the recipe can be found in Camellia Panjabi’s ” 50 Great Curries of India”.
A recipe for prawns in a thin curry sauce from Madhur Jaffrey’s ” Indian Cookery”. Serve with some plain basmati rice and perhaps cauliflower with potates.
I regularly enjoy hard boiled egg curries served with rice or flatbreads so have cooked many versions. This is from ” Madhur Jaffrey’s Ultimate Curry Bible”. Serve pickles and chutneys to accompany.
Golden rice flavoured with a little meat, spices and a hint of sweetness which is nice served with a spoonful or so of yoghurt on top and perhaps some mango chutney. It’s another recipe from ” Organic” by Sophie Grigson and William Black.
