Mmmm, kheer ....

--non Indian DH

My mother totally bonded with DW's aunt when Auntie taught Mom to make kheer. So good.

Instead of ras malai, I would make an easier dessert like carrot kheer or semiya payasam. Tastier for people who aren't used to the milk and cheese based Indian desserts. VahChef on youtube has good recipes for both of these.

fry up onions, garlic, and ginger
when translucent, add spices - 1 tbsp of tumeric & 1.5 tbsp garam masala
add 2 cups red/orange lentils
add 4 cups water
mix in bullion (veg base since ILs are vegetarian) - no need for extra salt

Bring to a boil, then simmer for 20+ minutes

Then do a fragrant rice - cardamon, anise, cumin + some frozen mixed veggies

For the veggie curry, I just fry up what I have. I did a saag a couple nights ago with similar spices as above - start out with the onions, garlic, and ginger, add some garam & tumeric

If you have the time & some chaat, make a raita too.

All & all, rather satisfying vegetarian dinner.


That will stink up the place.


That's what a vent I'd for you retard.

Thanks for the update! Glad it went well.

You have a real head start when you start off with something fried and crunchy.
