Here’s a quick vegetable curry recipe, not too hot, just very tasty. I like to make this with butternut squash, but you could really use any vegetables you like. You can increase the amount of chili powder used if you want to make it hotter.

A lot of the indian recipes you will see on this site or in recipe books will call for the use of ghee, or clarified butter. While you can substitute regular butter for the real thing, the extra effort involved in making your own ghee will pay off with a richer flavour in your curry [...]

This is a variation on the lamb keema curry recipe that I presented last time. Once again, the end result should be a dry curry with no sauce, but the addition of potato makes this a very filling curry. You can leave out the chillies if you don’t want it to be too hot.

Keema curry is probably the indian dish that I make most often, because it is so simple and the end result is extremely versatile. You can serve it with breads, with rice, as a filling for dosa and samosas or it can even be formed into kebabs. I’ve been known to use this as an [...]

This is a basic chicken curry that you could also use to make a beef or lamb curry. The sauce is made using the onion puree recipe. I have used peas in this recipe, you can use whatever vegatables you want to, cauliflower, potatoes and peppers work well.

If you don’t want to make your own curry paste, then bottled paste such as Pataks can be used. It’s often an ideal choice when you’re in a hurry.

This is a version of chicken vindaloo that does not need overnight marination. It is more like a very spicy hot curry than a true vindaloo but it’s useful when you’re in a hurry and you have a craving for a hot spicy curry.

You can make this tandoori recipe in your oven, but when you’re having friends over for a barbecue, you can change up from the usual burgers and hot dogs and offer your guests something a little different. Barbecuing the tandoori chicken gives it a fantastic taste and colour. This recipe can either be used on [...]
