1. Keto Butter Chicken
Is there anything that’s more satisfying than a bowl of creamy butter chicken with succulent chunks of chicken and buttery flavour? We don't think so. This amazing recipe of butter chicken needs about less than an hour for a flavourful, buttery delight you won’t be able to resist.
2. Cholar Dal

3. Punjabi Chole Masala
Let's admit that chole paired with puri, kulche, bhature or just plain rice rules every north Indian's heart. Brimming with spices such as cumin, chola masala, amchur and coriander powder, tossed in with kabuli chana, onion, ginger and garlic makes for an irresistible treat. Who can say no to it? We know we can’t! Just serve it hot with your choice of bread or rice. Don’t forget to spruce it with grated onio on top for a delightful treat.
4. Chettinad Paneer Curry
Chettinad cuisine is deemed to be one of the spiciest in India and is known for the complexity of flavours. While it has a string of non-vegetarian dishes to its credit including the popular chicken chettinad, the vegetarian offering is no less. This drool-worthy recipe of paneer chettinad is proof! Paneer chunks tossed-in with dry red chillies, shallots, curry leaves and more makes it a must-try.
5. Aloo Gobi Curry
Aloo gobi is a staple dish to go with parathas in India and this curry is another delicious spin to the same. This has the goodness of melon paste, onion and tomatoes tossed in with a pool of spices along with potato and cauliflower. Sounds interesting, isn’t it?
