Dishes to know on this menu

Butter chicken (murgh makhani): Tandoori chicken finished in a silky sauce of puréed tomato, butter, cream and a little fenugreek, sweeter and gentler than tikka masala. Invented at Moti Mahal in Delhi in the 1950s as a way to use leftover tandoori chicken. "Makhani" (buttery) on any dish, including dal makhani, promises the same rich treatment. On this menu as: Butter Chicken.
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. On this menu as: Dal Bukhara.
Kadai / karahi: Named for the wok-like iron pan it is cooked in: meat or paneer stir-fried at high heat with a coarse masala of crushed coriander seed, dried chili, tomato and bell pepper. Drier and punchier than a gravy curry; the Pakistani karahi is cooked with tomatoes, green chili and ginger, often by weight for the table. On this menu as: Kadai Paneer.
Kebabs: seekh, boti, shami: Seekh kebab is spiced minced lamb or chicken pressed around a skewer and grilled; boti is marinated cubed meat; reshmi ("silky") is chicken mince or breast in a cream marinade; shami is a pan-fried patty of minced meat and chana dal; galouti is Lucknow's melt-in-the-mouth version; chapli is the flat, coriander-seed-studded patty of Peshawar; bihari kebab is thin strips of marinated beef. On this menu as: Kebabs.
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: Biryani.
Paneer: Fresh, unaged cheese made by curdling hot milk with lemon or vinegar and pressing the curds into a firm block. It does not melt, so it can be grilled (tikka), fried, or simmered in gravies, and it is the standard vegetarian protein on North Indian menus. On this menu as: Kadai Paneer.
