Green Bean and Tomato Bhaji
Pair these wonderful green beans with a cooling raita or plain yogurt; serve hot with favorite bread/roti, paratha, or steamed basmati rice with protein of choice – legumes/daal, tofu, chicken, beef, etc.
Dal Makhani
This wonderful Dal Makhani is rich, creamy, and packed with North Indian flavor. It’s a slow-cooked dish that tastes even better the next day! Enjoy with naan, tandoori roti or rice. It’s a perfect treat for friends and family.
Chipotle Masala Rice with Tamarind
This delicious basmati rice dish is seasoned with a unique masala made from dry-roasted smoked Chipotle Morita chili peppers. Tamarind, jaggery, ghee, and roasted peanuts round out the flavors. Serve this as a side dish, or as a main dish with added vegetables and protein of choice. You can reduce the heat (spiciness) of the masala by halving the chili pepper and removing the seeds before pan-toasting.
South Indian Summer Sambar
Sambar is a delicious, super-flavorful South Indian lentil soup made with vegetables and seasonings. It’s typically served with idlis, rice or dosas. There is no one way to make sambar, so feel free to experiment with your choice of veggies, lentils and seasonings. We are keeping it seasonal for summer with zucchini and tomato.
Quinoa Kitchari
Kitchari is India’s most beloved comfort food; it’s also an important food for healing and supporting good digestion. While traditionally made with basmati rice, it can also be made with other grains. This hearty, delicious kitchari is made with sprouted quinoa, but regular quinoa will do fine.

Double Curry Dal with BEST HING EVER
We call this “double curry” because we use both DIY Balti Curry and Madras Curry (or Keto-In-A-Hurry) simmering sauce. This is a simple, delicious, nourishing meal that pairs perfectly with freshly cooked basmati rice, quinoa, or warm roti/chapati or naan bread, or any favorite crusty sourdough or whole grain bread.
Indian Rice with Saffron, Spices and Cashews
This is a classic take on an Indian favorite, made with our precious long-grain, aged basmati rice, aromatic spices, Kashmiri saffron, Indian bay and roasted cashew nuts. It’s delicious with a legume or meat dish, a green vegetable and/or a seasonal green salad.

Healing Carrot Ginger Soup with Ashwagandha Ghee
This Ayurveda-inspired soup is simple, nourishing, warming and mighty delicious. We used a medium-large white carrot from a local farm for this soup, but any color carrots you have on hand will do. Feel free to use any herbal, spiced, cultured or original GHEE you choose. This recipe will serve 1-2 people.
