WHATS YOUR FAVORITE FOOD

Anything and Everything with Paneer in it. However I love Chhole bhature too. Aloo Paratha with mango achaar? But I love Idli. Not a fan of Sambhar but I love idli with coconut chutney. Even dal chaawal is nice when my mum makes it BUT have you ever tried freshly cooked rice with ghee and salt and a bit of Achaar masala? That's heaven. My taste in food is pretty average. Everything is good when mum makes it 😭

[dato-georgia-caucasus]

Paratha (pronounced [pəˈɾɑːtʰɑː], also parantha) is a flatbread native to the Indian subcontinent, with earliest reference mentioned in early medieval Sanskrit, India; prevalent throughout the modern-day nations of India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Maldives, Afghanistan, Myanmar, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Mauritius, Fiji, Guyana, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago where wheat is the traditional staple. It is one of the most popular flatbreads in the Indian subcontinent and the Middle East. Paratha is an amalgamation of the words parat and atta, which literally means layers of cooked dough.

The paratha is an important part of a traditional breakfast from the Indian subcontinent. Traditionally, it is made using ghee but oil is also used. Some people may even bake it in the oven for health reasons. Usually, the paratha is eaten with dollops of white butter on top of it. Side dishes which go very well with paratha are curd, fried egg, omelette, mutton kheema (ground mutton cooked with vegetables and spices), nihari (a lamb dish), jeera aloo (potatoes lightly fried with cumin seeds), daal, and raita as part of a breakfast meal. It may be stuffed with potatoes, paneer, onions, qeema or chili peppers.

The Surprise

It was a cloudy day. Not too gloomy, the clouds were just the perfect shade of grey. I was getting ready to spend my day off laying on my couch, reading ‘Hold Still’ for the umpteenth time. It was Sunday, the beloved day for all to go hang out with their friends and family. But I had none, at least not where I lived.

I lived in Bengaluru then, working my new job. It was a great offer; so, even though I had to leave my family back in Odisha, I decided to take the job. The first few weeks were manageable; I was busy with shifting and putting things in order in my tiny new apartment. But after everything was settled, I started feeling the initial pangs of homesickness. I started missing my mom’s cooking, my sister’s annoying giggles, and even our street dogs’ unending howling. In short, I missed even the most annoying things about my hometown.

Work was good, though it was tiring. We had to work continuously for five hours before getting a one-hour break, and then again work for four long hours. The compensation we got wasn’t bad either; uninterrupted weekends at home, and a decent salary along with social benefits. The toil was worth the fruit.

I sat down with my breakfast tray, the T.V. remote in hand. I surfed channels until I reached the news channel. Just when I was about to take a bite out of the aloo paratha, I got a call. A smile spread on my lips as I saw the name on the screen, ‘Rashmi Aunty’. I picked up the call after pressing ‘Mute’ on the remote.

“Hello, Aunty! Namaskar!” “Yes, beti. Namaskar. How are you?” “I’m good, Aunty. How about you?” “Yes, dear. I’m all fit. By the way, I have a favour to ask.” “Sure, Aunty. What is it?” “Can you call Priyal to check where she’s reached? That brat isn’t picking up my call. She left home yesterday to give you a surprise visit.” “What- O-Okay, Aunty. I’ll call her right away. Bye!” “Bye, beti.”

Priyal is my best friend. We’ve been friends since kindergarten. And yes, she lived back in Odisha. I really had no idea that she was visiting. I was happy and, at the same time, was a bit disappointed that Aunty spoilt the surprise. I smiled and picked up my phone, hiding my excitement even though I lived alone. I turned my back to the T.V. as I walked into the kitchen, ignoring the news playing on the channel.

I scrolled through my contacts and pressed Priyal’s name. The call rang for a few moments, but it was unanswered. I tried her other number; that too was unanswered. “My girl is so dedicated to surprise me. Poor child! I’m just gonna act surprised,” I said aloud. “Ah, dumb me forgot to ask Aunty how she’s getting here,” I said with a facepalm. After another call with Rashmi Aunty, I got to know that Priyal had boarded a train to Bengaluru which was to arrive that day at 10.30 a.m. I looked at my watch, it read 9.55 a.m. I decided to go pick her up from the station myself, intending to surprise her instead.  

I changed into a pair of denim jeans and a black oversized hoodie before hopping on my scooty and starting for the station. On reaching, I saw that the station entrance was unnaturally crowded. People were screaming, yelling, and rushing in and out of the station. There were multiple ambulances with sirens; the medical staff rushed into the station with stretchers. Many people were pouring out with bloodied clothes. I began panicking.

I parked my scooty hastily and ran over to an ambulance. I went up to a nurse and asked, “Sister, what is this situation?” The maiden, who had just finished writing something in a register, looked up at me with distressed eyes and replied, “There has been a severe train accident a few metres from the station, ma’am. There have been many casualties. Please move out of the way and make way for the patients!”

I stumbled aside as I saw a severely wounded person being brought on a stretcher into the ambulance. My mind went blank for a few moments. The only image that came to my mind was that of Priyal; she had boarded a train to visit me.

She had boarded a train to visit me.

I rushed into the station and started screaming out Priyal’s name like a mad woman. I collided with many people, some desperately searching for a loved one, some desperately wanting a loved one to find them. Everyone was in hysterics; the atmosphere was one of pure chaos. The air was heavy with dust and the pungent smell of blood. As I neared the edge of the platform, I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. A great relief washed over me as I saw the name ‘Piyaaa’ flashing on the screen.  

“Hello, Piya?! Are you fine? Where are you right now?” I yelled into the phone the moment I picked up the call. “Hello? Am I speaking to Miss Baanhi?” came an unfamiliar voice from the other side. “Yes? Who is this and where is Priyal?” I screamed into the phone, my voice cracking in the middle.

----------------------------------

I ran to the reception and asked for the whereabouts of Priyal. The receptionist gave me a room number and a floor number which I blindly jabbed into the elevator. My legs seemed to have a brain of their own as they carried me to a large crowded room. There were around 30 beds in that room. Each bed was occupied by a patient, maimed and still. And beside almost every bed was that loved one who was waiting for their surprise visit. I scanned the room for the face I was looking for; I found it in a corner. I rushed over to her side. A doctor had just finished examining Priyal and was moving on to the next patient with a disheartened look.

“Doctor, doctor! What is wrong with her? She will survive, right?” I asked desperately, grabbing the doctor’s arm. She held my hand gently and said, “I’m afraid, Miss. You don’t have much time together. We tried all we could. Her spine is badly damaged and 20 of her vertebrae have been crushed. I’m really sorry.”

These words fell on my ears like lightning bolts. I felt my phone vibrate in my hand. ‘Rashmi Aunty’ was the name on the screen. The phone slipped from my grip. I slowly walked up to Priyal’s bed. She had the same face twinkling with mischief, only it was covered with dried blood and hastily wrapped with bandages. Her whole body was bloodied; her arms and legs were covered with bandages too. Her purple tee was discoloured with blood and was torn in many places. The doctors had probably shifted her to this room after examining her condition, and ascertaining that there was no hope of saving her.

There was a drip attached to Priyal, but there was no oxygen mask. The doctors probably didn’t want to waste the precious gas on a lost cause. There was a heart monitor, however, with a feeble reading. I kneeled beside her and took her hand gently.

“Piya?” I called quietly. She slowly opened her eyes and stared at me blankly. After a few seconds, a light of recognition flashed in her eyes as she squeezed my hand. Tears started blurring my vision as I squeezed her hand back.

“Why… Why didn’t you wait for a few more days… Why you…?” I muttered in between sobs. Priyal’s pale lips curled into a weak smile. “Surprise, babe!” She whispered using all her strength. I could say nothing; all I could do was hold her hand and cry my heart out.

“Heiii! Now don’t send me off all messy like that,” I heard Priyal’s feeble voice again. I looked up at her. Her eyes were filled with the same innocence that she had when we were kids. I made a shaky attempt to wipe my tears. Putting on a smile as best as I could, I said, “Shut up, dummy. You’re getting back on your feet within days and we’re celebrating my birthday at my place. No excuses now!”

She chuckled, and I giggled. Tears spilt out of our eyes without us realising. She tightened her grip on my hand. “Baanhi yaar… Tell maa and baba that I’m sorry for not being able to see them for the last time,” Priyal said, sniffing while smiling. “Don’t talk rubbish, Piya! You’re walking out of this horrid place,” I said as if I was consoling myself.

She smiled wider as I felt her grip loosen. “I love you, Baanhi. I’m really happy to have you here with me now. I’m at rest and remember, I’ll be watching over you always…��� said my best friend on her deathbed. “I love you more, Piya. I always will…” I muttered. Priyal’s smile never faltered, but the heart monitor did. It showed a flat line.  

--------------------------------

It’s still a cloudy day, even after 10 years. The clouds are the perfect shade of grey, yet it feels too gloomy. It’s Sunday, and I’m on my couch reading ‘Hold Still’ for the umpteenth time. I’m still in Bengaluru, with no family or friends to visit me, except for the bright jolly girl in a purple tee who still watches over me.

My phone rings, and a smile spreads on my lips as I see the name on the screen, ‘Rashmi Aunty’.

“Hello, Aunty. Namaskar!” “Yes, beti. How are you?” “I’m good, Aunty. How about you?” “Yes, dear. I’m all fit… I have a favour to ask, by the way.” “Sure, Aunty. What is it?” “Please live well, my child, and be happy.” “I will, Aunty. I definitely will…”  

-T.P.N

-------------------------------------------------------

A story that I wrote inspired by the recent triple-train crash in Odisha... The fact that hundreds of people were left waiting for a loved one forever absolutely pained me. I can never imagine the amount of pain these people must have felt...

My heart goes out to those people and the ones who had to leave untimely...

hello on this day of nice asks i would like to ask about the love of my life aishwarya. how did you come up with her, misc trivia (what’s her favorite ice cream flavor, what dish is her absolute weakness, what kinds of books does she love) things you’re going to include in the series and things you’re not i want to know everything pls

oh my god i could go on for ages about her, i love aishu to pieces. i have an entire "aishu begins" style fic in the works, but i am happy to feed you until i finish that one (which wont be for a while lmao)

okay aishwarya rajesh is a heavy combination of people i know in my life, and some of my own personality traits thrown in there. there's a lot to be said about the lack of queer poc/brown women in hollywood, and that was definitely a driving factor of in the creation of her character. she was originally someone i would just write these little scenarios about in the margins of my notebook, going as far back as my freshman year of high school with a couple of other OCs.

ironically, i've always had the same face claim and profession for aish - anupama parameswaran (who is absolutely stunning btw) and paramedic. She evolved as I did, fleshing out into a fully fleshed character over the years.

when i restarted lone star and started engaging in the fandom, i realized that this was a safe space for this character i had shaped into someone i loved so dearly.

anyway enough about how i created her <3

favorite ice cream flavor: has to be haagen-dazs coffee-chip or talenti's chocolate peanut butter cup gelato. she's literally obsessed with chocolate and peanut butter, it's a sureshot way of getting you to forgive her.

favorite dish: aloo paratha, oh my god it's pani puri. whenever tk and carlos did something really stupid, they'd go begging Aparna to help them make aloo paratha so she'd forgive them. once carlos started picking up cooking, carlos started making it himself, picking up so many other recipes. it's a bonding thing for the trio now, where they all go to one of the three houses and make one of aparna's recipes. they absolutely carry this into their adult life, and it's one of aishwarya's favorite traditions that was carried from their childhood.

books she loves: crime thrillers. she's obsessed with them, she thinks there's so goddamn interesting, and she will make carlos read them with her and send him her insane theories (she's right almost 95% percent of the time and it drives carlos nuts) (he doesn't know she reads ahead and actually knows how it ends, and she just likes his reaction) (tk does know this and watches the chaos unfold with his cider every. single. time.)

okay so i've alluded to an aish/iris relationship before, but never really discussed anything, buuuut aish's got an ex-boyfriend, rahul. thye broke up on good terms because rahul realized aish was in love with iris but wasn't ready to confront it yet. they stayed friends and i have not decided yet, but i think they hooked up on and off throughout college, after which iris and aish reconnect again romantically (they do repair their friendship, but they both wanted more)

i'm cutting myself off, because i could tak about her for hours and still have more to share. she's so special to me.

send me more asks about her, please. i love talking about her.

Character Intro: Agathodaemon (Kingdom of Ichor)

Nicknames- Daemon by the others

Dad by Komos

Age- 47 (immortal)

Location- Crete, Olympius

Personality- He's a true oenophile; someone who loves & appreciates wine in the strict traditions of consumption and reverie. He's also open minded, passionate, and appreciates the finer things in life. He's currently dating.

He has the standard abilities of a god except shapeshifting. As the god of vineyards, grainfields, & luck his other powers/abilities include limited vitakinesis (healing), being able to temporarily grant someone with luck (that lasts 24 hours), limited chlorokinesis (as it pertains to vine plants), having an innate knowledge of agriculture & plants, and limited alcokinesis.

Daemon used to be married to Elais (goddess of oil). They share a child, a son Komos (god of revelry). Even though their divorce was a bit contentious, lately they've been working towards being cordial and establishing a friendship.

He lives by himself in the state of Crete in a breathtaking Mediterraean style mansion just a few miles away from his own vineyard & winery! There's a large rock lined pool and hot tub & inside there are many decorative fruits, paintings, natural stone walls, rattan and cotton furniture pieces, & terracotta pottery pieces. He owns a few horses, a vacation cottage in Santorini, and a yacht called the Carpe Diem. He also travels often to the states of Olympia (to see his girlfriend) & New Olympus (to see his son).

Every morning Daemon rides on horseback to his vineyard to check on the vines.

He's the second largest producer/manufacturer of wine & other alcoholic beverages after Dionysus (god of wine). They have a playful rivalry and friendly rapport with each other, especially since the wild prince was his son's mentor. Daemon's other business is a wine bar/smoking room called Ygró Veloúdo, where the customers can also partake in hookah smoking. With an official website and glowing reviews in The Oracle, Modern Olympus magazine, & Kalí Órexi- the culinary magazine owned by Deipneus (god of cooking & breadmaking), there are plans for other establishments in Santorini, Olympia, the Underworld, as well as the Mania & Skyline neighborhoods of New Olympus.

A go-to thing Daemon likes to make & eat for breakfast is eggs florentine with smoked salmon and garlic home fries, usually topping it off with a glass of champagne. He also likes toasted kalamata olive bagels topped with caviar butter and aloo paratha.

His favorite drink of course is wine. From the rich savory reds of merlot, pinot noir, & shiraz to the crisp fruity whites of chardonnay, pinot gris, & sauvignon blanc, always following the 5 S's of wine tasting- see, swirl, sniff, sip, and savor. He also likes classic martins, bellins, bourbon whiskey, & rum. His least favorite alcoholic drink is beer. His go-to coffee drink is a cappuccino. Daemon's own signature wine (that's a bestseller) is a sparkling vanilla blackberry.

Some of his favorite desserts include the vanilla-sparkling wine pound cake, vanilla & white wine poached pears, and rum cake (topped with dark chocolate buttercream frosting).

In the pantheon Daemon's friends with Favian (god of philosphy), Apólafsi (god of enjoyment), Karme (demi-goddess of the harvest) as well as her brother Karmanor (demi-god of the harvest), Evimería (goddess of prosperity), Priapus (god of fertility, vegetable gardens, livestock, sexuality, & masculinity) as well as his wife Philotes (goddess of sex, friendship, & affection), Litismós (goddess of culture), Demeter (goddess of the harvest & agriculture), The Nesoi (sister island goddesses), Sponde (goddess of libations), Hyperion (Titan god of heavenly light), & Pan (god of the wild, satyrs, shepherds, and rustic music).

He was the official mentor to Keraon (god of baking & wine mixing).

Daemon still keeps in touch with his former sisters-in-law- Oeno (goddess of berries & wine) and Spermo (goddess of grains).

His all time favorite frozen treat is the Cocktails on Ice chocolate cherry merlot wine ice cream!

Daemon's currently dating Panigýri (goddess of festivals). They first met at Hyperion's yacht party in Rhodes where they had an animated debate with Favian on the topic of illicit drugs. When the party was over, the two of them ended up exchanging numbers. Their first "date" was a few weeks later- an outdoor ritualistic dance party with a few of her maenad friends. Panigýri kissed a lotus tile into Daemon's mouth and he ended up having one of the trippiest moments of his life! In the morning (and still a bit high), they went cliff diving naked. Daemon appreciates her fearlessness & confidence. The fact that lovemaking with her has been his best ever is also a bonus!

With his role as a father, he's come to enjoy the friendship he has built with his son. When they're together they'll often go horseback riding, surfing, & play video games. For his birthday his son gave him a black leather jacket (the back of course he bejweled) which Daemon didn't seem to mind.

A guilty pleasure of his are savory beef patties. There's a small restaurant near the end of Crete that are well known for them.

He loves snacking on a trial mix of raisins, salted cashews, and swiss & mozzarella cheeses. He also likes wine gummy bears his girlfriend introduced him to!

Daemon is known to host barbecues at his place inviting family & good friends. Food served there include beef & lamb souvlaki skewers, pita bread (with tzatziki dipping sauce), juicy sirloin burgers stuffed with feta cheese, falafel, watermelon feta salad, paidakia with roasted potatoes, and keftedes. Afterwards, they even roast marshmallows & make s'mores!

He and Panigýri recently partook in a UV body painting couples class along with Kéfi & her fiance Psionikós (god of the mind).

His favorite meals include stuffed lobster rolls, one pan chicken au champagne and rice (added with mushrooms), and slow cooker red wine pot roast.

In his free time Daemon enjoys sailing, jet skiing, surfing, horseback riding, gardening, cooking, football (soccer), painting, working out, sunbathing, swimming, golf, & tennis.

"Wine makes most drinkers think."

What is a Tiffin Meal?

A Tiffin meal is a light, portable meal traditionally associated with Indian and South Asian cuisine, though its concept has gained global recognition. What is tiffin? The term “tiffin” originates from British India during the colonial period, derived from the English slang “tiffing,” which meant taking a light meal or snack. Over time, it has evolved to represent an entire meal served in a compact, transportable format.

Key Features of a Tiffin Meal:

Compact and Portable: Tiffin meals are usually packed in multi-tiered containers, commonly called tiffin boxes. These containers are designed to separate different dishes and maintain their freshness and temperature.

Balanced and Versatile: Tiffin food typically includes a variety of dishes to ensure a balanced diet. For instance, in Indian households, a tiffin might feature rice, chapati, curry, vegetables, pickles, and sometimes a dessert. The composition varies widely, reflecting regional and cultural influences.

Convenience for Work and Travel: Tiffin meals are widely used by students, officegoers, and travellers because they are easy to transport and nutritious. In cities like Mumbai, the famed dabbawalas deliver home-cooked tiffin meals to office workers, exemplifying the efficiency and cultural importance of this meal concept. Tiffins, often made with insulated or stainless steel materials, are designed to tiffin keep food warm and fresh for extended periods.

Cultural Significance: In India, the tiffin meal represents more than just food; it’s a reflection of home-cooked love and care. For many, it’s a connection to traditional family recipes and flavors, even when they are away from home. Non veg food includes meat, poultry, seafood, and eggs, offering rich protein content and diverse flavors in global cuisines.

Global Adaptations: The concept of tiffin meals has transcended its Indian roots. In many parts of the world, it has inspired meal prep trends, bento boxes, and portable lunch solutions.

Why Choose a Tiffin Meal?

Tiffin meals are practical, nutritious, and eco-friendly. They reduce reliance on disposable packaging and often emphasize fresh, homemade food. Food services in Buckinghamshire offer diverse options, including catering, delivery, and dine-in, featuring local and international cuisines.

Whether enjoyed at work, school, or on a picnic, a tiffin meal ensures a delightful and satisfying dining experience wherever you are. Lavang, or clove, is a fragrant spice used in Indian cuisine for its warm flavor, medicinal properties, and aroma.

What Goes in An Indian Tiffin?

An Indian tiffin is a carefully packed meal that reflects India's diverse culinary traditions. Typically carried in a multi-tiered stainless steel container called a tiffin box, it ensures that various dishes remain separate and fresh until mealtime.

Indian tiffins are designed to offer a balanced, wholesome, and flavorful meal, often including a mix of carbohydrates, proteins, vegetables, and condiments. Indian tiffin service offers home-cooked meals delivered daily, featuring a variety of traditional dishes like curries, rice, and roti.

Here’s a detailed look at what usually goes into an Indian tiffin:

1. Main Course Staples

Rice or Roti (Flatbread): Most Indian tiffins include either steamed rice or freshly prepared rotis (sometimes parathas or naan). These form the carbohydrate base of the meal. Some prefer flavored rice, like pulao or biryani, for added variety.

Dal (Lentils): A small container is often dedicated to dal, such as toor dal, moong dal, or masoor dal, providing a rich source of protein and flavor.

2. Vegetable Dishes (Sabzi)

Indian tiffins typically include one or more vegetable preparations called sabzi. These can range from dry stir-fried vegetables like aloo gobi (potatoes and cauliflower) or bhindi masala (okra) to gravied dishes like paneer butter masala or chana masala. Tiffin service provides home-cooked meals delivered to your doorstep, offering convenience, variety, and balanced nutrition for busy individuals.

Seasonal vegetables are commonly used to ensure freshness and nutrition.

3. Accompaniments

Pickles (Achaar): A small portion of spicy, tangy pickles made from mango, lime, or mixed vegetables adds a burst of flavor to the meal.

Chutneys: Freshly made chutneys, like mint-coriander, coconut, or tamarind, serve as flavorful dips.

Curd/Yogurt: Yogurt or raita (spiced yogurt with vegetables) helps cool the palate and balances the spices. Indian spices like turmeric, cumin, cardamom, and coriander are essential for flavorful dishes, offering health benefits and aromatic richness.

4. Snacks and Sides

Many tiffins include snacks like samosas, pakoras, or vadas, adding variety and texture to the meal. Papads (crispy lentil crackers) may also accompany. Gujarati tiffin service delivers homemade, flavorful dishes like dhokla, thepla, and kadhi, offering a taste of authentic Gujarati cuisine.

5. Desserts

A small, sweet treat, such as gulab jamun, kheer, or laddoos, is often included, providing a satisfying end to the meal.

6. Optional Extras

Sometimes, Indian tiffins include boiled eggs, chicken curry, or fish fry for those who consume non-vegetarian food. Food services in Slough provide a variety of options, including restaurants, catering, and delivery, offering diverse global and local cuisines.

What To Eat with Curry Other Than Rice?

When enjoying curry, rice isn’t the only option to pair it with. For a different twist, try naan bread, a soft, warm Indian flatbread perfect for scooping up curry. You can also serve curry with crispy flatbreads like chapati or paratha for a satisfying crunch.

For a lighter option, opt for quinoa or couscous, which absorb the curry’s flavors beautifully. Sweet potatoes or roasted vegetables provide a hearty, nutrient-packed alternative. Additionally, salads with yogurt-based dressings or fresh greens balance the richness of curry, offering a refreshing contrast.

These alternatives offer variety while complementing the spiciness and depth of curry. Tiffin delivery services provide home-cooked, nutritious meals, often delivered in traditional boxes, ideal for busy professionals and students.

Conclusion

An Indian tiffin is more than just a meal; it is a thoughtful combination of flavors, textures, and nutrition. With its variety and balance, it ensures a delightful dining experience, whether at work, school or on the go.

Star Mart carries a wide selection of Indian spices, fresh vegetables, and essential pantry items that make it easy to bring authentic Indian flavors to your kitchen. From dal and curry to naan and basmati rice, here’s everything you need to know about making delicious Indian food with ingredients from Star Mart.

1. Essential Indian Spices Available at Star Mart

The secret to authentic Indian cooking lies in its spices. Spices like cumin, turmeric, coriander, and garam masala form the backbone of Indian cuisine, lending complexity and aroma to dishes. Star Mart carries a variety of these spices in their international section, making it easy to stock up on these essentials.

1.1. Creating Your Own Garam Masala Blend

Garam masala, a traditional Indian spice blend, is made from a mix of spices such as cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, cumin, and coriander seeds. Toast the whole spices in a dry pan until fragrant, then grind them into a fine powder using a spice grinder. Making your own garam masala is easy and ensures freshness, which makes a big difference in flavor.

2. Classic Basmati Rice and Perfect Cooking Techniques

Basmati rice, a long-grain rice known for its delicate aroma and fluffy texture, is a staple in Indian households. The secret to cooking perfect basmati rice is rinsing it several times to remove excess starch, then soaking it before cooking. At Star Mart, you’ll find quality basmati rice brands that deliver authentic flavor and texture.

3. Lentils and Legumes: Foundations of Indian Vegetarian Dishes

Lentils, also known as dal, are a fundamental part of Indian cuisine, especially for vegetarians. Star Mart offers a variety of lentils, including red lentils (masoor dal), yellow split peas (chana dal), and green gram (moong dal). Lentils are not only affordable and nutritious but also versatile, forming the basis for many Indian soups and stews.

3.1. Recipe: Traditional Yellow Dal Tadka

To make dal tadka, cook yellow lentils until soft. In a separate pan, heat oil, and add cumin seeds, garlic, ginger, and green chilies. Pour this tempering over the cooked dal, add a pinch of garam masala, and serve with basmati rice or naan for a comforting, authentic meal.

4. Fresh Vegetables and Herbs for Authentic Flavors

Fresh vegetables are essential in Indian cooking, with ingredients like onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, and green chilies forming the base of many curries. Fresh herbs like cilantro and mint add a burst of flavor. Star Mart’s produce section stocks these essentials, so you’ll have no trouble finding what you need for traditional Indian dishes.

4.1. Recipe: Aloo Gobi (Potato and Cauliflower Curry)

This classic vegetarian dish combines potatoes and cauliflower in a spiced tomato-based sauce. Sauté the vegetables with spices like cumin, turmeric, and coriander, then cook until tender. Serve with roti or rice for a hearty, flavorful meal.

5. Star Mart’s Range of Dairy Products for Indian Cooking

Dairy products like yogurt, paneer (Indian cottage cheese), and ghee (clarified butter) are commonly used in Indian recipes. Yogurt adds creaminess to marinades and sauces, paneer is a delicious protein source, and ghee adds depth of flavor. Star Mart stocks these items, making it easy to recreate authentic Indian recipes at home.

5.1. Recipe: Paneer Butter Masala

To make paneer butter masala, start by sautéing onions, tomatoes, and spices to make a rich sauce. Add in cubes of paneer and a dollop of cream for a luxurious, flavorful curry that pairs perfectly with naan or rice.

6. Authentic Indian Breads: Naan, Roti, and Paratha

Indian meals often feature flatbreads such as naan, roti, and paratha. Naan is a soft, leavened bread usually baked in a tandoor (clay oven), but it can be made on a stovetop too. Star Mart offers frozen naan for convenience, or you can make your own with flour, yogurt, and yeast.

6.1. Recipe: Homemade Naan Bread with Simple Ingredients

For stovetop naan, make a dough with flour, yeast, yogurt, and a bit of sugar. Roll out small pieces and cook in a hot skillet until bubbly and golden brown. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic for added flavor.
