Recipe collection

70 Indian recipes

From Kashmiri lamb curry in the north to peppery prawns from Kerala in the south, these recipes traverse the diverse country. Make up a quick midweek curry or build your own banquet. Just don't forget a cooling chutney or raita to counteract the heat, and flatbread to mop up the sauce. Need to stock your pantry? Anjum Anand shares her essentials here.
