Indian cuisine is rich, aromatic and wonderfully varied. Herbs and spices play a central role, but always in combination with pure ingredients such as rice, pulses, vegetables, yoghurt, bread, meat or fish. From creamy curries and fragrant rice dishes to dal, chutneys and tandoori dishes, India has an enormous culinary tradition with strong regional differences.
At Goed en Lekker, we collect Indian recipes that are easy to prepare at home, with clear steps and accessible ingredients. Think of simple side dishes such as jeera rice, spiced lentil dishes, aromatic curries and fresh chutneys: dishes in which spices are carefully layered and flavour comes first.
Recipes from Indian cuisine
Rogan josh
Rogan Josh is a traditional lamb dish from Kashmiri cuisine, known for its deep red colour, aromatic spices and soft, creamy texture — without tomato or cream.
Gajar Gosht is a classic North Indian dish in which lamb is slowly braised with carrot and spices. The carrot gives the dish softness and roundness, without making it distinctly sweet.
Jeera rice is a simple Indian rice dish made with basmati rice, cumin seeds and ghee. The cumin is briefly fried in warm ghee or oil, so that its aroma and flavour are released.
