Recipes You’ll Make Again and Again
Indian cuisine is incredibly diverse. You’ll find rich curries and breads throughout the Northern region, rice- and lentil-based dishes in the Southern—and plenty of sweets and street food options sprinkled throughout. From everyday dishes meant for weeknight cooking to ones reserved for special occasions like Diwali, you’ll easily find many that you return to on a regular basis. And, if you’re anything like us, you’ll be inspired to keep a few essentials (like fresh paneer, a jar of ghee and the spice blend, garam masala) on hand, too. You can’t go wrong with any of the recipes in this roundup but Chana Masala is one of our favorites. Often called Amritsari Chole, this chickpea curry originates from Punjab but is popular all over India. There are many versions of this dish and every house has its own take on it. Ours features chickpeas smothered in a delicious thick, piquant and spiced gravy.
