It’s Easy When You Know How
It’s tempting to think easy-to-cook Indian dishes are just the ones with the shortest recipes, but that isn’t always the case. Some dishes look simple but require just the right skills to bring them together, all of which you can learn in real-time with my live online classes and cook-alongs. If you can’t attend a live class, not to worry – my recipe library is packed full of classes you can watch anywhere, anytime.

Weeknight Favourites
Start with something familiar, like a chicken korma, and it quickly becomes clear that “easy” isn’t about cutting corners. The fundamentals of a delicious korma are simply chicken braised in yoghurt and cooked in ghee with whole spices. If you keep the heat steady and let it cook as it should, the dish takes care of itself.
The same thinking applies to other easy-to-cook Indian dishes. My delicious lamb dhansak is a one-pot extravaganza – perfectly spiced lentils, vegetables, and lamb all soften and blend into a perfect mid-week family meal.

Easy-to-cook Indian dishes aren’t just about fewer ingredients. It’s more about knowing which ones matter and how to use them properly. A simple dal or a basic chicken curry can go either way depending on how spices are handled. Small details like when to add garlic, or how long to let onions cook, can have a big impact. Once those parts click, even dishes that once felt out of reach become part of your regular rotation.
Indian cuisine is perfect for a lifestyle that thrives on quick and easy (and utterly delectable) meals. The sheer variety of dishes covered in my recipe library means you’ll never run out of inspiration.
