[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you have access to a commercial kitchen - huge pots, ladles and big gas burners?  Can you cook Indian food or follow recipes? 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.  [/quote]

People are split on Indian food. I’d never serve it to a large group. tastes great to me but generally looks like vomit on rice. [/quote]

Agreed. I love it but it’s not for large groups, especially kids. It’s also at of work. Not everyone likes Indian food. Some are turned off by the smell.

Go with soul food. Something for everyone and simple. [/quote]
