    Crisp Tofu With Ginger Dipping Sauce
    This can be a nice little starter for an asian-inspired main course. Baking the tofu instead of deep-frying makes this dish healthier and less greasy. The tofu also stays crispier instead of going soggy.

    Kande Ki Sabzi [Indian Onion Stew]
    This is a delightful little dish of whose heritage I am unsure of. Maybe it hails from Western India, but it is the ethnic counterpart of the famed western caramelised onions. 'Stew' is too strong a word for it, as it is essentially a 'sabji' [subji/subzi], which means tempering and cooking vegetables in a pan till they are al-dente [same principle as in pasta].

    Pasanda Kebab
    This particular type of 'Kebab' or 'Kabab' is actually shallow fried on a pan or 'tawa' as it is known in India, as opposed to cooking in a Tandoor, so it is extremely easy to make at home. This mutton Kebab is a delicacy from the Awadh Kitchens which the city of Lucknow is famous for.
