Typical Indian dishes: how to understand dhals, "curry", tandoori and street food

Indian cuisine is a family of regional styles – from delicate legume dhals through various sauce styles (korma, vindaloo, rogan josh, palak paneer, chole) to tandoori and the essential world of street snacks.

Taste of Indian cuisine: how to recognize it and create it at home

"Indian taste" is not one universal sauce nor a synonym for spicy food. Indian cuisine is a broad family of regional styles – from delicate legume dishes through tandoori breads and marinades to rice dishes with tamarind, coconut, and curry leaves. In this article, you will clarify what typically makes up Indian taste, how the north differs from the south, and how to build it in practice even without "pouring all the spices of the world" into the pot.


The most common mistakes in seasoning: spices, herbs, sauces, and marinades without unnecessary errors

The most common mistakes in seasoning: spices, herbs, sauces, and marinades without unnecessary errors

Seasoning in Asian cuisine often matters more than the recipe itself. It's not just about spiciness or adding salt at the end. Flavor is built in layers: some develop when toasting spices, some in the sauce or marinade, and some only at the very end with fresh herbs or final condiments. In this article, we will go through the most common mistakes, why they happen, and more importantly, how to easily fix them in practice.

Typical Indian ingredients: their role in food and how to recognize them

Indian cuisine is not a single unified tradition, but a broad family of regional styles. That's why it's worth looking at "typical Indian ingredients" as practical building blocks: what forms the base (rice, breads, legumes), what gives the dish richness (ghee, yogurt, paneer), what builds aroma (spices, aromatics), and what provides an important contrast (for example tamarind). The article provides an overview of key ingredients, their functions, and concrete advice on how to start using them at home without unnecessary mistakes.

North and South India in the kitchen: how to recognize the difference on the plate and what to cook at home

"Indian cuisine" is not one taste or one sauce. For a European home cook, however, the division into north and south is one of the most practical reference points: it helps to understand why sometimes bread and a creamier sauce make more sense, other times rice, coconut, and a more pronounced acidity. This article will show the main differences, what both directions have in common, and how to bring them into everyday home cooking without unnecessary shortcuts and mistakes.

Meals that work for multiple people and an ordinary week: the Asian logic of bowls, noodles and sides

Cooking for more people on a workweek is less about “perfect recipes” and more about how to smartly build a meal: so it’s satisfying without feeling heavy, and can be easily adjusted to the tastes at the table.
