Indian cuisine is well-known for its spicy, rich, and flavorful taste. Because of India's diverse culture, ethnic groups, and soil, its food is truly flavourful. With such a wider range of spices, herbs, and vegetables, it's no surprise that all of their recipes and dishes are nothing short of delectable. Traditional Indian cuisine is consumed by many people worldwide, including the United Kingdom, making it the fourth most popular dish. But, with so many authentic Indian dishes to try, which one should you order first? There's no need to be concerned because we've got your back. In this article, we will discuss some of the best Indian specialities that are worth trying. From traditional recipes to the popular dishes you can find around the UK. So, let's get started. Chicken Makhani or Butter Chicken Marinating the chicken overnight in yoghurt and spices like ginger, turmeric, cumin, coriander, garlic paste, pepper, lemon, chilli, and garam marsala yields a delectable Murgh Makhani or Butter Chicken. It is then cooked in a tandoor, a cylindrical clay or metal oven, to make the chicken soft and tender. You can also replace the chicken with tofu for a healthier version that is suitable for vegans Chana Masala or Indian Chickpeas Curry Chana Masala is one of the most popular Indian vegetarian curries due to chickpeas and spinach. It's a spiced-curry dish with a tangy flavour that's gluten-free and vegan by nature. This recipe is now available in many Indian restaurants in the UK, so having it for dinner tonight should be no problem. Rogan Josh or Curried Meat Originally a Persian dish, Rogan Josh consists of lamb chunks brought to India and is now considered Kashmiri's multi-course meal. The fragrance of this dish came from its gravy, which was a combination of browned onion, yoghurt, and various spices. It may be too spicy for some, but it's a must-try for lamb and spicy food lovers. Malai Kofta or Paneer Balls in a Thick Sauce Do you want a dish that will be the centre of attention at any event? Malai Kofta is a must-try! These meatless balls are made from potatoes, paneer cheese, nuts and raisins, heavy cream, and various spices. Finish with your favourite thick butter, gravy, or cream sauce that goes well with naan bread or Jeera rice. Chutney or Fruit Sauce Surprisingly, India has a flavorful sweet sauce that goes well with savoury dishes like samosas. Chutney is made up of various fruits, such as mango, as well as herbs and spices. Although it is typically a fruit sauce, you can also make a savoury sauce by combining mango and onion, paired with a variety of Indian dishes. With over 12,000 Indian restaurants in the UK, many authentic Indian dishes to try have been proven to be the healthiest. In addition, turmeric and ginger are anti-inflammatory spices used as dietary supplements to treat arthritis and stomach problems. So, the next time you consider Indian food to satisfy a craving, consider its numerous health benefits as well. Are you looking forward to trying all of these Indian dishes?
