Dishes to know on this menu

Garam masala: "Masala" simply means a spice blend, or the sauce built on one. Garam masala ("warm blend") is the finishing mix of cardamom, cinnamon, clove, cumin, black pepper and other whole spices toasted and ground, added at the end of cooking for aroma rather than heat. Every region and household has its own proportions. On this menu as: Chicken Masala · Cheese Masala Dosa · Masala Dosas.
Saag & palak: Saag means cooked greens: spinach, mustard, fenugreek or a mix. palak is specifically spinach. Puréed and simmered with ginger, garlic and cream, then paired with paneer, chicken or lamb. Sarson ka saag (mustard greens) with corn flatbread (makki di roti) is the Punjabi winter classic. On this menu as: Saag Paneer · Chicken Saag · Aloo Saag.
Biryani: Long-grain basmati layered with marinated meat, fried onions, saffron and whole spices and cooked "dum", sealed under a lid so the rice steams in the meat's juices. Hyderabad, Lucknow, Kolkata (with a potato and egg), Malabar and Sindh each have their own. Served with raita and often a thin gravy (salan). Pulao is the simpler, single-pot cousin. On this menu as: Biryanis · Vegetable Biryani · Lamb Biryani.
Tandoori: Cooked in a tandoor, a deep, charcoal- or gas-fired clay oven that reaches very high heat. Tandoori chicken is bone-in pieces marinated in yogurt, lemon, ginger-garlic and spices (the red color is mostly Kashmiri chili or food coloring), skewered and roasted until charred. Naan is slapped onto the same oven's walls. On this menu as: Tandoori Kabobs · Tandoori Chicken · Tandoori Breads.
Korma: A Mughal court braise: meat or vegetables cooked slowly in a pale, rich sauce of yogurt, cream and ground nuts (cashew or almond), scented with cardamom and saffron. Mild on most restaurant menus; navratan ("nine jewels") korma is the vegetable-and-fruit version. On this menu as: Chicken Korma · Vegetable Korma · Shrimp Korma.
Dal: Lentils, and the soupy stew made from them. Dal tadka is yellow lentils finished with a tempering (tadka) of spices sizzled in ghee; dal makhani is black lentils and kidney beans simmered overnight with butter and cream; sambar is the sour, tamarind-and-vegetable lentil stew of the south, served with dosa and idli.
