Good for you. :) I hate the stuff though :( But i love chinese food :roll:I just can't get into Chinese food. I like Thai, Ethiopian, Brazilian, Mexican, Greek, Italian, and many other things...but not Chinese. ~ Michael.

Being Indian myself, I ABSOLUTLY LOATHE THE STUFF!

Too spicy for my taste


--

Strange, you love their food. Yet you say members of Islam are doomed to hell...

i love all kinds of food.

mm, food.

Too spicy for my tasteI love spice! The last time I tried to get into Chinese food, the waitress made a "hot" sauce for us with Chinese hot mustard, chili paste, and soy sauce. It was not hot enough for me, so I added more mustard and chili paste to less soy sauce. But it was still not hot enough. So when my appetizer came out, I just spooned hot mustard and chili paste straight onto it. Forget the soy sauce. ~ Michael.

WAY too much for me. i can handle spicy within reason.

I like spicy, but a different kind--if it has cayenne pepper in it, I'm all over it. Comes from growing up in Cajun country.

My best friend's father fixed a mean chicken gumbo. But I wanted the full force of the spices' bite, so I told him to serve it to me with no rice in it, just chicken and spiced broth. WOW! ~ Michael.

Not all food from India is hot curry.

There are delicious variants in many regions of this huge country.

My favorite sweet, mild example is Gujarati: khaman dhokla, a salty steamed cake made from chickpea flour; doodha pak, sweet, thickened milk confectioned with nuts, and srikhand, a dessert made of yogurt, flavored with saffron, cardamom, nuts and candied fruit.

My local pita establishment uses curry mixed with mayo for it's newest addition, "Bombay Chicken." Don't like curry, can't stand mayo, but CurryMayo? Mysteriously delicious.

oh man, that's crazy.

Curry and roti prata.. HM......

I love Chinese food, and I have it everyday.

Western food is quite fatty and often fried. Ugh.

The Indians sure cook lamb well :D

My favorite indian food: Corn.

Sure, it didn't look like that back then.. and Indian corn's almost inedible.. but we wouldn't have corn today without the indian "maize," and that's a fact. :wink:

I just love it but dang most of it is sure fattening - I can't eat nearly as much of it as I'd like to :(

Eh? Corn? They're talking about Asiatic/South Asian people..

btw I LOVE that food (I am indian after all..)

I tend to prefer Northern sytle cooking.

Southern style cutlery seems to be a hammer! ;)

you know what......the creater of Henry kissenger is an indian.....thats right i am indian and i eat indian food everyday. i can't live without it.

I like curry chicken. I love hot stuff. ;)

Indian cuisine is a really vast and diverse selection. It's hard to judge it as a whole, nor easy to pick a favorite. What small fraction I have tasted I like...

Butter chicken. I'm not too extravagent.

Seeing as I've never heard of any of the post options, except some article last week saying the British were getting cancer from that chicken massala, I'm stickin with Corn. 8)

Lucknow Sabzi Teekia Passanda :D

with Chick Pea rice and a Garlic Naan.

Gorgeous! and 100% veggie

Mango Lassi.

I think thats how its spelled.

Its basically Goats milk, and mangoes...all blended together, and chilled......frickin delicious.

Tandoori chicken....Nan bread.......I havent tried anything Indian, I didnt at least halfway like.

When I last went to London, I ate in a place called verraswamy's. Great place to eat.

Apparently there is "real" indian food there, as I heard that most "indian" restaurants do not actually serve "Indian" food.

Yup, most of the "Indian" dishes served in Britain were specifically aimed at the British pallete. Proper Indian food, if you can find a proper Indian, is amazing.

My favorite Indian food is wild turkey with maize, starchy tubers, seasoned with catspaw or birch scrapings. :?

I prefer a nice hot curry with birth scrapings, myself.

Yuppity-yup. Vindaloo and Tikka Masala are more British dishes than Indian! We brits think we're so hard, and try and put loads of spices in meals that shouldn't have them, or invent a stupidly hot dish (vindaloo). Also, a lot of people believe Tikka Masalas should be bright red, when they should be orangy-brown. The redness shows there's too much dye in the curry - so much in fact it's poisonous!

Anyone ever seen the Goodness Gracious Me sketch where a load of Indian men go into a British restaraunt in Calcutta and order 'the blandest thing on he menu'? Brilliant.

As long as it's hot! :twisted:

Mango Lassi.

I think thats how its spelled.

Its basically g0at milk, and mangoes...all blended together, and chilled......frickin delicious.

Tandoori chicken....Nan bread.......I havent tried anything Indian, I didnt at least halfway like.

Lhassi I think....yes...bloody gorgeous! I love mangos big time!

Here is a simple recipe...you need a raosting dish and a pan (and another pan for the rice)

get yer chicken thighs and wash them and then dry with a kitchen towel.

Into the roasting dish with them.

Then some diced onion, garlic, whole chillies (not really meant for eating), paprika and some oregano and basil.....all over the chicken....add a bunch of oil and mix every thing together....then spread it all out....and add half a cup of water....into the oven with that...

For the pan you have onions....sweat them off along with the garlic and chillies (chopped) with some juliened ginger.

Add potatos (large chunks) and some tomatos (plump) and water....add in some garam masala unless you are able to get yer own curry leaves....then make up some curry poweders first:)

Also add in some veg like monge tout and cherry tomatos and the like...

Anyway....cook away....you ought to be able to time it that all finishes together...

5 or so mins before you take the chicken out whack on some coriander...and add some to the Aloo mix...(the potatos)

and don't for get the rice....!

the aloo mix is like a gravy kind of thing
