Indian Cuisine is Healthy
Authentic Indian recipes are full of organic ingredients that are proven to be
healthy. Examples include common Indian spices like Turmeric that help with
inflammation, prevention of Alzheimer’s, and improve heart health. Being plant-
based, Indian cuisine is rich in a variety of grains, nuts, pulses, and seeds (that
provide healthy oils). It’s the myriad health benefits of Indian cuisine that make
Indian food and spices preferred on menus at many a detox retreat. Speaking of
which, you can book your total body and mind detox retreat here.

Indian Cuisine is Rich in Variety


They say variety is the spice of life. That probably came from the Indian cuisine
playbook. From different flavors to different smells to different looks, Indian
cuisine is so full of variety there’s always something to look forward to with
every meal. Yes, that includes simple Indian dinner recipes.

Indian Cuisine Offers an Exceptional Experience


Remember that time you and a friend sit down for dinner at an Indian food
restaurant. The smell of jasmine and spice awakens your senses. There is a busy
clatter of pots and pans coming from the open kitchen. With Indian cuisine, it’s
more about the experience around the preparation and consumption of the food. This
makes it one the best for bonding with family and friends.

meals you must have on your radar.

Read on to learn about the best top 10 Indian food dishes and how you can recreate

1. Chicken Makhani (Butter Chicken)

Butter chicken is mouth-watering, tender chicken, cooked in a spiced tomato sauce.


It’s traditionally cooked in a tandoor (a cylindrical clay or metal oven), but may
be grilled, roasted or pan-fried in less authentic preparations.

Always make the gravy by first cooking fresh tomato, garlic, and cardamom down into
a bright red pulp. This pulp is then pureed after cooling. Then, the chef adds
butter, various spices, and Khoa (dried whole milk).

Vegetarian Indian Dish Option:


Though a lot of traditional Indian food uses meat, there are plenty of Indian
vegetarian dishes. You can make your own butter chicken vegetarian by substituting
chicken for tofu.

You can mimic the taste and texture of chicken by tossing tofu pieces with corn
starch. Then, bake the pieces in the oven and voila! You have slightly crispy,
delicious, buttery vegetarian “chicken”.

2. Samosas (Deep-Fried Potato/Veggie Dumpling)


top 10 indian dishes samosas

Samosas are a very popular traditional Indian Dish. Probably because samosas are a
tasty, fried, or baked pastry with savory fillings.

Spiced potatoes, onions, peas, and lentils fill traditional samosas. But sometimes,
they are made with ground lamb, ground beef or ground chicken.

Good news for all of you Indian food lovers and solely plant-based eaters. Indian
samosas are usually vegan! That means the pastry is free of eggs and dairy
products.

Samosas are often accompanied by a sweet mint sauce or chutney (scroll down for
Chef Marie’s sweet and savory chutney recipes!). These puffy treats are common
street food. You can find tourists and Indian natives alike eating them as a midday
snack or a side to the main dish.

3. Aloo Gobi (Potato and Cauliflower)


Indian Cauliflower Potatoe Delight

Aloo Gobi is a dry, vegan Indian dish, made with potatoes (aloo), cauliflower
(gobi), and Indian spices. It has a warm, yellow-orange color, because it uses a
staple in Indian dishes: turmeric.

Aloo Gobi occasionally contains kalonji and curry leaves as well. Other common
ingredients include garlic, ginger, onion, coriander stalks, tomato, peas, and
cumin. Throw it all together to roast in the oven and you’ve got one of the most
popular dishes ordered in Indian restaurants.

4. Naan (Flatbread)

If you’ve never experienced good naan bread, your life has been much less delicious
than it could be.

Naan is a leavened, oven-baked flatbread. You normally serve Naan with all meals.
This bread is the perfect combination of chewy and crispy, buttery and garlicky.
It’s exactly what every Indian dish needs to complement the otherwise bright and
intense flavors.

There are many different types of naan breads depending on what you’re in the mood
for.

Butter and garlic naan bread are the classics.
