• Almut's Chicken Curry
  This is a super simple weeknight curry using store bough sauce.
• Aloo Chana
  A traditional potato and chickpea curry. Quick and easy.
• Beef Rogan Josh
  This is a complete classic that teaches you about how to cook a curry properly. And you can see the overlap with French cooking a the same time.
• Dal Makkni
  A modern, north Indian variation on a dal. Most recipes don't have chickpeas, but I like it.
• Lemony Chicken with Fresh Coriander
  This is the dish that got my father to like Indian food. It is just delicious and not spicy at all.
• Madhur Jaffrey's Spiced Yogurt Leg of Lamb
  I have made this a dozen times over the years and it never fails to impress. Perhaps use a meat thermometer to make sure you don't overcook the meat.
• Omar's Chicken Karahi
  From my good friend Omar, who basically only eats meat.
• Sag Aloo Soup
  A little bit spicy and hearty. Great for winter.
• Sag Paneer
  Very simple and super tasty.
