Rice is the staple diet on the Indian sub-continent and its influence has extended to it being the traditional accompaniment for Indian dishes in restaurants. The very best rice is Basmati rice. Rice is served as either plain boiled rice or one can use rice base and make pulav, biryani, fried rice out of it.

Do means “two” and Dopiaza means something like “double onions”. Typically this is a fairly basic Indian restaurant curry, prepared as a Bhuna or Bhoona but with the addition of extra onions probably both in the cooking and as a garnish. It is also the same strength as a Bhuna which is medium, so not very hot
A Bhuna is a fairly dry fried curry containing onions and spices. It tends to be medium hot and fairly palatable to the uninitiated. Like Dopiaza, but less onions.
Jalfrezi is ‘hot’ dish given additional heat by being cooked with fresh green chillis and or green peppers. It usually also contains visible onion, tomato and capsicum. It is the addition of the green peppers and probably addition of extra chilli powder that sets this dish apart from other typical curries on the menu.
Korma is the definitive mild curry. It is typically prepared with butter and thickened with single cream and coconut milk to give a very, very mild creamy sauce. Spicing would be more subtle, and there would be more use of aromatic spices such as cardamom, clove and cinnamon rather than the more robust spices such as chilli, cumin, black pepper etc.
Tandoori dishes derive their name from the Tandoor oven that they are cooked in. Tandoor ovens are traditionally clay ovens fuelled by charcoal in the bottom.
They say Tikka Massala is Britains No. 1 favourite dish. The Tikka Massala curry is made with Tikka meat. That is, meat that has been marinated and cooked on skewers in a Tandoor before being used in the curry preparation. The Massala is the curry sauce that the Tikka is served in. It is a creamy mild and colourful dish, often appearing day-glow red due to the addition of the red food colouring either in the Tikka process or in the Massala or both. It is prepared in the same way as a basic curry dish but with the addition of possibly yoghurt and just before serving, single cream.
The widespread belief is that Vindaloo owes its origins to Portugese colonial India, where it was traditionally a Potato, meat, chicken and Vinegar curry from Goa. The term Vindaloo is really indicative of the strength or heat of the curry. It usually has diced potatoes in the sauce along with the chosen meat or chicken. Vindaloo is ‘hotter’ than a Madras. However, more informed opinion shared with us states that Vindaloo originated from Vindalho which is derived from vinho or wine (vin is French so that is not the right word) and alho which is garlic. Not aloo (potatos) as no one spoke Hindi in Goa during the Portuguese regime. Potatoes may be added to the dish. A lot of vinegar was used so people say the VIN could have come from vinagre. But even so the local wine or feni is still added in a good vindalho.
