An absolute classic, and crowd favourite at any Indian restaurant - Tikka Masala is a creamy, flavourful explosion with just enough spice (for us westerners!) This recipe helps you make the Tikka Masala paste from scratch, giving a truly authentic flavour, then add whatever proteins, or veggies you wish to make this your favourite Indian meal!
Delicious flavours from the north of India. A healthy, delicious, curry that is easy to make - all from scratch! This is one of my favourite Indian meals as it's super healthy and tastes delicious!
The easiest cheese you will ever make (only two ingredients)! Paneer is a delicious cheese traditionally found in Indian cuisines. Cooking with paneer you will typically find in curries, and you can replace your meat or tofu with it, alternatively we like to add paneer with our beef meals to fill them out!

The country is broken up in states (29 to be exact), and travelling between them is very similar to travelling between countries in Europe, each state is so different and diverse in customs, culture, and landscape!
