Few years ago we were in India for quite some time. The one thing I really missed when I was in India was the Oven and the grill. So we went to one of the industrial fairs which was happening in our city and I got a grill...a very crude one-coils and and an aluminum plate about 4 inches from it to hold food. The main dishes that were advertised with it were Tandoori roti and Tandoori Paneer.
Anyway, so we got it and this cook (from a road side dhaba) came to my house to demonstrate how to use it and he made the most amazing Tandoori rotis and Tandoori Paneer on that day. I am sharing that dish here. Along with a sour soupy egg curry with Thai flavors
Anda Khatta Thailand wala (Egg curry with Tamarind juice and thai spices)
Ingredients:
Add the remaining oil and fry the onions till tender. Add green chillies, ginger-garlic paste and yellow curry paste and fry for 5 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients (if using coconut milk use only 1 more cup of water...else use 2 cups water and 2 tablespoons coconut milk powder) and bring to a boil and simmer for 5-7 minutes. Add boiled fried eggs and simmer further for 5-10 minutes or until gravy thickens a bit. Garnish with cilantro and serve with hot fluffy white rice
Also try Drumsticks with eggs curry
Variety egg curry
Egg curry with dried shrimp
Tandoori Paneer (Cottage cheese grilled with Indian spices)
Ingredients:
Mix all the ingredients with hand and set aside 30 minutes to 2 hours. Lay the paneer pieces as a single layer on a cookie sheet and put it under broiler and broil for 2-3 minutes. Cut the heat, stir the pieces once and broil further for 2-3 minutes. Serve hot.
Serve as it, as a side dish or as party bites
