Fresh Indian Cheese in a Butter-tomato Sauce (Paneer Makhani)
This is the vegetarian version of Chicken in a Butter-tomato Sauce, for which a tandoor-roasted bird is cut up and enfolded in a rich, creamy sauce. This vegetarian incarnation is much loved and generally eaten with Indian flatbreads, especially naan.
Whole Red Lentils with Cumin & Shallots Sabut Masoor
A soothing and nutritious dish, full of fibre and protein. Serve it with rice, relishes and vegetables as a main course or as a side dish.
Stir-fried Aubergines Cooked in a Tamil Nadu Style (Kathirikai Poriyal)
This is a dry stir-fry, so it does not have a sauce. It is eaten as a side dish with dishes like Sambar, rice and yoghurt relishes.
