An Anglo-Indian Christmas...

My family is Anglo-Indian and this is never more evident than at our Christmas table!

Anglo-Indian cuisine is a delicious amalgamation of Indian and European dishes and styles of cooking - soups tempered with cumin and red chillies, roasts cooked in whole spices like cloves, pepper and cinnamon, rissoles and croquettes flavored with turmeric and garam masala... the list goes on.

I would be very remiss if I did not include some Anglo-Indian food ideas for you to try this Christmas. So, here goes...

• Green Pulao
• Green Chicken Pulao (pictured top left)
• Peas Pulao
• Chicken Jalfreizi
• Egg Curry (pictured middle/ right)
• Pork or Lamb Chops
• Kachumbar
• Caramel Custard (pictured bottom left)
