Simple & Delicious Indian Recipes
Naan, flatbread and a must eat at an Indian restaurant is traditionally baked inside blazing-hot clay ovens (Tandoor). I am presenting a homemade version that is actually quite easy to make on a hot skillet and stove top and is fluffy, crispy outside/ soft inside and very tasty.
This bowl is so easy to make, and it’s also great for meal prepping! It’s a perfect lunch with protein, fats, and carbs.
It’s an easy to make recipe that tastes like Heaven. During summer time, there are many varieties of great tasting mangoes available and we love to enjoy the fruit as well as different recipes from Mango. I tried a quick mango dessert and it tasted super yummy. A quicker version is also described under notes.
Make it on the previous day and the results are satisfying.
Dal roti is a staple food in North India. It is a wholesome food, and usually people eat it for dinner or lunch. Dhabas are roadside restaurants and dal roti is the most famous and popular dish there. Dhabas serve dals with tandoori roti (flatbread made with whole wheat and traditionally cooked in tandoor (cylindrical clay oven) hence the name tandoori). It’s almost always served with some ghee or butter on top.
Dal roti is fairly easy to make and I tried making tandoori rotis at home (using a toaster instead of the usual tandoor) and it came out pretty well. All the ingredients are typically available at home.
Turmeric, ginger and garlic are considered superfoods and supposed to have multiple health benefits including remedy for digestion, inflammation and viral infections. This recipe of finely chopped ginger, garlic and turmeric seasoned with ghee/ butter and dry spices is not only good for health especially colds and flu but also extremely tasty (though a bit spicy) when taken as a relish or side dish. But then sometimes we need alternatives to spicy pickles.
Lauki ka Raita is so good and incredibly easy to make; it takes less than 5 minutes! As the weather is getting warmer, this is a great way to cool down!
