Tender chickpeas in a rich, spiced tomato sauce, ready in under 30 minutes and ideal with puri, paratha or rice.
50 minKeema Curry (Vegan)
Vegan keema cooks soya mince with peas, tomato and deeply browned aromatics until every crumb carries the masala. It is savoury, comforting and superb piled onto rice or scooped up with naan.
150 minVegetable pilau rice
Vegetable pilau folds sweet vegetables and aromatic whole spices through fluffy basmati. It is colourful enough to take centre stage yet balanced enough to sit beside a rich curry.
30 minMasala Fried Rice with Turmeric Onion Raita
Masala fried rice gives leftover grains new life with vegetables, toasted spices and plenty of colour. A cool turmeric-onion raita makes a bright, creamy counterpoint.
40 minCoconut Rice, south Indian style
South Indian coconut rice tosses separate grains of basmati with coconut, mustard seeds, curry leaves and crisp lentils. Cashews add richness and a welcome crunch.
30 minDosa Recipe
A properly fermented rice-and-lentil batter makes dosas crisp at the edges, lacy across the centre and faintly tangy. Serve them straight from the pan with sambar and fresh chutney.
20 minJeera Rice Recipe
Jeera rice perfumes fluffy basmati with cumin seeds, whole spices and a little ghee-style richness. Its restraint is precisely why it sits so beautifully beside a bold curry or dal.
30 minVeg Biryani | Vegetable Biryani Recipe
This vegetable biryani layers fragrant basmati rice with spiced vegetables, herbs and saffron. Each forkful should hold separate grains, tender vegetables and a new little burst of aroma.
105 minVegan Kheer (Indian Rice Pudding)
Vegan kheer slowly cooks rice with oat milk, cardamom and saffron until creamy and fragrant. Nuts add texture to this quiet, comforting pudding, which is lovely warm or chilled.
45 minChickpea Coconut Curry
This chickpea coconut curry combines a warmly spiced tomato base with creamy coconut milk and hearty chickpeas. It is generous, soothing and particularly good when the gravy is mopped up with rice.
60 minSouth Indian Brinjal Curry
This South Indian brinjal curry balances melting aubergine with mustard seeds, curry leaves, tomato and tamarind. It is tangy, aromatic and full of the flavours that make a bowl of rice disappear quickly.
40 minPalak Chole (Spinach Chickpea Curry)
Palak chole combines hearty chickpeas with a vivid spinach masala, balancing earthy greens, tomato and warming spice. It is nourishing, full-flavoured and excellent with rice or roti.
30 minRajma Masala (Punjabi Kidney Bean Curry)
Punjabi rajma masala simmers kidney beans in a thick onion-and-tomato gravy until everything tastes rich and settled. This is unhurried comfort food, best spooned over steaming basmati rice.
