Hi folks,

What would be your favorite dishes for asit down meal ( at home)where there is to be starters, sides, mains and possibly sweets for 4 people, all adults.

1 person thinks a Korma is quite spicy
1 can do a madras
1 can take it to vindaloo standard
and me a phall although that and vindaloos would not really be on the menu as it is a share and try type celebration meal.

TIA,

I wouldn't worry too much about the heat range -- just ensure that there is a good choice.  More important is, is a tandoor available ?  So, I offer two selections, one with tandoor, one without.

Selection 1 (with tandoor) --

Starters :  Chicken tikka, reshmi kebab, onion bhaji, prawn puree.
Main courses :  Tandoori chicken, chicken Madras, mutton biryani, lamb dhansak
Side dishes :  Mushroom bhaji, sag aloo, chana masala, matar paneer
Carbohydrates :  Pulao rice, chapatti, aloo paratha, keema naan.


Selection 2 (w/out tandoor) --

Starters :  Chicken chat, reshmi kebab, onion bhaji, prawn puree.
Main courses :  Bhuna king prawn, chicken Madras, mutton biryani, lamb dhansak
Side dishes :  Mushroom bhaji, sag aloo, chana masala, matar paneer
Carbohydrates :  Pulao rice, chapatti, aloo paratha, keema naan.


Many many other possibilities, of course.

Thank you Phil.

Sadly no tandoor available but there are many options in your second list and as you say many more. My base is currently playing at being a volcano at the moment,lol.

Once again thank you for the advice and I'll take some photos of tomorrow nights feast.
