I have been eating a lot of Indian food lately. This stuff looks good. Nice job. Just curious to the OP: Are you Indian? I'm not trying to judge, I'm just curious. I think its awesome when people cook the food of other cultures well. I'm not Indian, by the way.
I'm Indian alright, but I love to grill foods from all across the globe. Few days ago I made some Japanese style tenderloin and it did not turn out that great. That is why it did not get posted on here lol. My specialties are Indian kababs, and steak. I don't mean to brag, but I've yet to have a better steak then what I make at home.
In kind of an ignorant way, I'm always surprised when I see beef dishes on Indian menus. I need to shake that.
you're not the only one. beef is slightly difficult to find in bombay, but not impossible. i believe mutton (goat) is definitely used more then beef. seekh kabab can be made from ground beef, chicken, goat or lamb.
You'll find beef fairly easily in India. In major cities there is usually a sizeable Muslim minority that will make beef dishes. It's actually harder to find pork in India than beef.
Mine too, but much smaller. Grilled burgers and hot dogs for the game with some buddies. Hmm those were good bacon cheese burgers.
Psssh whatever, you are bragging. But from what I know from the few chef buddies I know, they hate their own food. Well maybe not hate, but they would never eat any self-prepared food. They'd get someone else to make it for them.
<br> No offense, but traditional south indian food is not that great. And it's really bland, which is why it doesn't smell. Dosa and that sort of stuff is nothing compared to other indian dishes.
This seems to be kind of ignorant. It may be bland and not that great to you, but that doesn't mean you're right, that's just your opinion. South Indians probably think north indian food is not that great, has too strong an aroma and has too many spices in it.
Kebab isn't a traditional Indian food. I believe it was passed down by the Mughals from Iran and Afghanistan. Consuming Pizza in America doesn't make it American, it's still Italian. So let's give credit where credit is due: thanks Afghanistan for providing us with these savory treats.
are you in houston? best indian restaurant by far is Himalaya on 59 right off of Hilcroft. Their kababs, chicken tikka, curries are absolutely awesome!
nope i'm in europe this month, but thanks for this recommendation...will definitely try this place when i visit houston again
I'm hispanic, but that stuff you guys use on the chicken tikka is delicious! I go to this little mom and pop place called "Kabob House" (not to be confused with that Mediterranean place) on FM1960 near Ella
I have not found a good curry house in Austin....when I lived in the UK, I ate curry every other day...dang I miss it. DD
I actually like North Indian food. The problem is that North Indian restaurants almost cook a standard formula that isn't really representative of North Indian food anymore. Home cooked food in say Gujarat is not the same as food in Punjab yet North Indian restaurants in both will taste exactly the same. Also as for blandness, much of my family lives in Andhra Pradesh which is known for making very spicy South Indian food (much spicier than average Indian food anyway). Lastly if you judge "Indian food" by restaurants then of course its bland, your clientele demands it. Most Americans prefer it more bland. The same is true in North Indian restaurants.
