Indian Recipes for Home Cooks
Indian cuisine is one of the most diverse in the world, varying dramatically by region — rich Mughal-inspired curries from the north, fiery coastal dishes from Goa and Kerala, vegetarian staples from Gujarat, and street food from Mumbai. What makes Indian food approachable at home is that most dishes rely on the same core spice pantry: cumin, coriander, turmeric, garam masala, and chilli. Master those and the doors open. Each recipe here includes full spice guidance and substitution options so you can cook with confidence whether you're building your spice rack from scratch or already well-stocked.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need specialist equipment for Indian cooking?
No. A heavy-bottomed pan or wok, a wooden spoon, and a sharp knife is all you need. A blender helps for smooth sauces.
Can I make Indian recipes dairy-free?
Most can be adapted — substitute coconut milk for cream, use oil instead of ghee, and skip paneer in favour of tofu or chickpeas.
How spicy are these recipes?
Spice levels are noted on each recipe. Most can be dialled down by reducing chilli without affecting the dish.
What are the best Indian recipes for beginners?
Dal, chana masala, and butter chicken are ideal starting points — flavourful, forgiving, and each teaches key techniques.
