Onion Paratha
(2 Pcs)
"Onion Paratha is a flavorful and mildly spicy Indian flatbread stuffed with a savory mixture of finely chopped onions and aromatic spices. It’s a popular choice for breakfast or a light meal, especially in North Indian households.
The stuffing typically includes chopped onions mixed with green chilies, coriander leaves, cumin seeds, carom seeds (ajwain), red chili powder, salt, and sometimes amchur (dry mango powder) for a tangy twist. The mixture is added to whole wheat dough, rolled out carefully, and cooked on a hot griddle (tava) with ghee or oil until golden and crisp.
Slightly sweet from the caramelizing onions and spicy from the masala, Onion Paratha offers a delightful balance of textures and flavors. Best served hot with curd, pickles, or butter, it’s a comforting and satisfying dish that’s easy to make and full of homestyle charm."
Palak Paneer
"Palak Paneer is a nutritious and flavorful North Indian dish made with soft cubes of paneer (Indian cottage cheese) simmered in a silky spinach (palak) gravy. The spinach is blanched and blended into a smooth, vibrant green puree, then cooked with aromatic spices like cumin, garlic, ginger, and garam masala.
Rich in iron and protein, Palak Paneer strikes a perfect balance between health and taste. The mildly spiced, creamy spinach sauce coats the tender paneer, delivering a dish that’s both comforting and deeply satisfying.
Typically garnished with a swirl of cream or a dollop of butter, Palak Paneer is best enjoyed with naan, roti, or jeera rice — a must-have for anyone who loves authentic Indian vegetarian cuisine."
Paneer Butter Masala
"Paneer Butter Masala is one of the most beloved and iconic North Indian dishes, featuring soft cubes of paneer (Indian cottage cheese) gently cooked in a rich, creamy tomato-based gravy. This mildly spiced curry is infused with butter, fresh cream, and aromatic Indian spices, delivering a smooth, luxurious texture and a slightly sweet, tangy flavor.
The gravy is made from pureed tomatoes, onions, cashews, and a medley of spices like garam masala, kasuri methi, and chili powder, creating a perfect balance of richness and warmth. A generous amount of butter adds to its indulgent, melt-in-the-mouth appeal.
Served best with naan, tandoori roti, or fragrant basmati rice, Paneer Butter Masala is a must-have for paneer lovers — a restaurant favorite that never fails to impress."
Paneer Fresh
"Indian Paneer Fresh is a soft, non-aged, non-melting cheese made from curdled milk and an acidic agent like lemon juice or vinegar. It is a staple ingredient in Indian vegetarian cuisine, prized for its mild flavor, creamy texture, and high protein content.
Fresh paneer is white, moist, and slightly crumbly, yet firm enough to be sliced or cubed. It absorbs spices and sauces beautifully, making it incredibly versatile for curries (like Paneer Butter Masala), stir-fries, kebabs, and stuffed dishes. Since it doesn’t melt when heated, it holds its shape well in both dry and gravy-based recipes.
Often made at home or available fresh at Indian dairy shops, Paneer Fresh is not only delicious but also nutritious—rich in calcium and protein, making it a popular choice for vegetarians. It can also be enjoyed raw in salads or lightly seasoned as a quick snack.

The word Lababdar signifies something that is utterly irresistible — and this dish lives up to its name with its creamy texture, subtle sweetness, and burst of aromatic spices.
Flavored with butter, fresh cream, ginger, garlic, and a hint of kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves), the gravy is smooth and rich, with a balanced tanginess from fresh tomatoes and a gentle warmth from garam masala. Some versions also include grated paneer in the sauce for extra richness.
Served hot with naan, paratha, or jeera rice, Paneer Lababdar is a royal treat that’s perfect for special occasions or indulgent everyday meals — a true favorite among paneer lovers."

Elegant in its simplicity, Plain Basmati Rice brings balance to a meal, soaking up bold sauces and complementing both vegetarian and non-vegetarian entrees. It's a pantry staple in Indian households and a must-have in traditional thali meals."
Plain Paratha
(2 Pcs)
"Plain Paratha is a classic Indian layered flatbread made from whole wheat flour, known for its crispy, flaky texture and rich, buttery flavor. Unlike stuffed parathas, this version is made by rolling out dough, spreading it with ghee or oil, folding it into layers, and then pan-cooking until golden brown and slightly crisp.
Soft on the inside and slightly crispy on the outside, Plain Paratha is incredibly versatile and pairs well with a wide variety of dishes—such as curries, dals, pickles, yogurt, or even just a dollop of butter. It can also be enjoyed as a wrap or rolled up with a simple filling for a quick meal.
Whether served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, Plain Paratha is a comforting and satisfying part of traditional Indian cuisine, loved for its simplicity and taste.
Poached Egg Curry 
"Poached Egg Curry is a unique and comforting Indian dish where eggs are gently poached directly in a simmering, spiced gravy rather than being boiled beforehand. This method allows the eggs to absorb the rich flavors of the curry while staying soft and tender.
The gravy is typically made with a base of onions, tomatoes, garlic, and ginger, seasoned with traditional Indian spices like turmeric, red chili powder, coriander, and garam masala. As the sauce simmers, raw eggs are carefully cracked into the curry and allowed to cook slowly until the whites set and the yolks remain slightly runny or fully cooked, depending on preference.
This dish offers a delicate texture and bold flavor in every bite. Best served hot with steamed rice or soft Indian breads like chapati or paratha, Poached Egg Curry is a humble yet satisfying meal—especially loved in home kitchens for its simplicity and rustic charm."
