An introduction to Indian cuisine<\/p>\n
Shabana Akbany, Contributor, Jakarta<\/p>\n
The gradual awakening of interest in Indian cuisine is reflected
\nin the worldwide mushrooming of the Indian food business.<\/p>\n
Not so very long ago, Indian food was considered \"strange\" and
\n\"mysterious\", but now it is not at all uncommon to hear all
\naround the world \"Hey, let's have curry tonight\".<\/p>\n
Indian food not only has tremendous potential for providing an
\nideal combination of taste and flavor, but it is also relatively
\neconomical. Above all, it is wholesome and nutritious.<\/p>\n
It is quite easy to select a number of dishes within the vast
\nrange of Indian cuisine that are low in fat content, and are
\ntherefore also suitable for those who have an eye on their
\nweight.<\/p>\n
The beauty of Indian cooking lies in its flexibility, which
\nallows freedom to vary the ingredients and their proportions --
\nespecially the spices -- to suit anyone's palate. Of course, this
\nrequires some grasp of the basics.<\/p>\n
Although there is an incredible variety of dishes in Indian
\ncuisine, I have selected those I feel are the tastiest, the most
\nfamiliar and are typically found in some form or other in every
\nIndian household.<\/p>\n
As the saying goes, \"nothing beats real home cooking\".<\/p>\n
Keeping this in mind, here are a few recipes ranging from the
\nsimple to the more elaborate to bring a little bit of India into
\nyour home.<\/p>\n
