Whats goes on in an IndiaOrganix kitchen?
The staples of IndiaOrganix are rice, atta (whole wheat flour), and a variety of pulses, the most important of which are masoor (most often red lentil), chana (bengal gram), toor (pigeon pea or yellow gram), urad (black gram) and mung (green gram). Our chefs use them whole, dehusked, for example dhuli moong or dhuli urad, or split beans. Pulses are used extensively in the form of dal (split). Some of the beans like chana and "Mung" are also processed into flour (besan) to make dishes such as pakora.
Most IndiaOrganix curries use light vegetable oil. In North and West Indian curries, groundnut oil is used for frying, while in Eastern Indian, mustard oil tends to be used. In South Indian curries, coconut oil and gingelly oil is common.
The most frequently used spices in IndiaOrganix kitchens are chilli pepper, black mustard seed (rai), cumin (jeera), turmeric (haldi), fenugreek (methi), asafoetida (hing), ginger (adrak), and garlic (lassan). Our chefs make fresh daily batches of garam masala, which is usually a powder of five or more dried spices, commonly comprised of cardamom, cinnamon and clove.
