Indian food can accommodate veg and non-veg, dairy free, peanut free, gluten free, vegan easily and some of the dishes below lends well to being made in advance.
Appetizers -
- Tandoori chicken. (Easy marination and then just bake)
- Cauliflower fritters with green mint chutney. (super easy to make if you have a commercial fryer. Serve with ranch and mint chutney)
- Spiced potatoes and peas Samosas (buy frozen, need to be defrosted and baked/air fried/pan friend/deep fried
Main meal -
- Vegetable rice pilaf - super easy using frozen veggies and rice.
- Black bean daal - easy to make using a jumbo sized crock pot and it freezes well
- Spinach paneer - easy to make in the crock pot and it freezes very well.
- Butter chicken - make extra tandoori chicken and then dunk it in a crazy tasty easy tomato sauce.
- Fried crispy okra in chickpea flour - easy and super fancy dish using whole (headless) frozen okra.
- Lamb vindaloo - Cook the lamb in yakhni (stock) and a bit of vinegar in a jumbo pressure cooker to tenderize it, make the curry with store bought vindaloo paste by Pataks and deep fried onions in the fryer.
Dessert -
- Ice cream and cakes from Costco.
This is a lot of steps. Indian food is delicious and can accommodate a wide range of dietary preferences, but it is definitely NOT known to be easy.
