Cooking Indian Food for Kids

When you're an adventurous eater, nothing is more annoying than having to cook separate meals for your kids because they won't experiment with you! I am working hard to change that in our home by slowly introducing our children to foods we love.

Let's face it, my little people (like countless other the world over) are not into spices and curries. If however, like me, you love your Kormas and Masalas the way to get around this potential pain is to serve them the milder foods and curries as an introduction. That way they get to 'fall in love slowly'! Here are a few ideas...

• Kaali Daal
• Shahi Murgh
• Naans
• Green Chicken Pulao
• Idli served with South Indian Coconut Chutney....
