Vegetarians .. what do you order from Indian restaurant

[tgifridayx]

I'm a new vegetarian and before I made the change used to order the most delicious chicken tikka masala from our local Indian restaurant.

I don't know what to choose now! Any suggestions ?

Tandoori paneer to start with (totally adddicted)
Mushroom Balti or whatever curry I fancy
Chapati
Sometimes a mushroom biryani but depends on the restaurant
Kulfi if I have any room left

Sometimes a vegetarian tali if it's a proper Indian restaurant

Vegetable somosas with the minty yoghurt sauce
Something with lentils or chick peas and cauliflower bhaji and a naan bread instead of rice.

Daal makhani in my fav restaurant

Vegetable Korma in my second fav

Vegetable masala! Exactly the same as chicken tikka masala but with vegetables instead of chicken, it's delish

Not vegetarian but I would be very happy with onion bajee starter and then 2 side dishes- saag paneer and bhindi bajee with mushroom pilau rice. Yum!

They will serve you anything you fancy on the menu as a vegetarian option, just ask.

It's the sauce that makes the dish. I love boiled egg in curry, it's very delicious. Indian cheese, paneer, is also yummy.

If I'm eating Indian my favourites are rezala, sag paneer, sag aloo, Tarka dal, vegetable pasander, lots of Nani breads to choose and chutney.

You really don't need meat to make an Indian meal special. Most of the recipes have been adapted to add meat, it's not common in India.

Another one who always orders a couple of veggie sides instead of a main. My favourites are muttar paneer, tarka dhal, chana masala, brinjal bhaji, bhindi bhaji (MASSIVE okra fan). If it’s South Indian then masala dosa- dosas are the best .

Vegetable madras (potatoes, cauliflower, sweet corn, peas, white cabbage). Every time. Normally share a peshwari naan with my Husband too.

Malai kofta - potato dumplings. Delicious.
