3 miesiace wojazowania po Indiach okazalo sie byc kulinarnym rajem dla wegetarian z prawdziwego zdarzenia, z kilkunastoletnim stazem, takich jak ja. Kazdy posilek, przekaska czy male conieco bylo ekscytujaca wielosmakowa przygoda. Oto pierwsza dziesatka najsmaczniejszych potraw w Indiach, ktora stworzylismy w goracych dyskusjach i debatach wraz z Lesem.
10 - Hello to the Queen
Think every dessert you've ever had all squashed into one artery-clogging bowl... Oh yeah!
Ekscentryczny misz-masz wszelkich deserow jakie mozna sobie wyobrazic w jednym slodkim dziele sztuki na Goa, dla wszystkich tych ubostwiajacych desery chocby w polowie tak jak ja.
9 - Cheese garlic naan
When you eat naan bread every day you become somewhat of an expert in the field. Go to the rooftop of the Panorama Hotel and you'll not be dissapointed mmmm mmm!
Indyjski chleb prosto z pieca w unikatowej wersji na wiejski serek i prazony czosnek w wybornej balkonowej restauracji Panorama w Udaipurze. Palce lizac!
8 - Aloo chana/Aloo gobi
Another Indian staple that just never seems to let you down. Who knew potatoes could be so interesting?! Chana is with chickpeas and gobi with cauliflower by the way.
Ziemniaczki w towarzystwie cieciorki badz kalafiora utopione w pikantnym sosie curry az mi slinka cieknie...
7 - Thali
You know those days when you just want a bit of everything? Well Thali is just that, a bit of everything on a large platter. And just so you don't get bored, each state serves a different variation. A really balanced meal and ever so tasty m'lord!
Ryz, placki ciapati i wianuszek przeroznych sosow i dipow, na poludniu egzotycznie podawany na bananowym lisciu. Taki zestaw z cyklu dla kazdego cos milego i najlepsza opcja dla tych niezdecydowanych...
6 - Palak paneer
It may not be much to look at but by golly it makes up for it with a myriad of spicy flavours, enough paneer(a type of Indian soft cheese) to near kill you, all spiked with loads of garlic to counteract the cheesy abundance and what must be a whole field of spinach, lending the whole dish a somewhat radio-active green colour.
Zawiesista, gesta potrawa na bazie szpinaku i indyjskiego sera bialego paneer, na lagodnie czy na ostro, wysmienicie, zdrowo i pozywnie.
5 - Samosas and Vadai(preferably with a side of Mango chutney)
If you're ever in Orchha and you pass by a smiley man cooking, topless, at a little roadside stall you're in for the biggest treat of your life. Fried and battered Veg and potato best eaten with your hands from banana leaf bowls, the chutney is the best we've ever had!
Jarzynowe pierozki samosy o piramidalnym ksztalcie czesto ze szczypta cynamonu oraz ziemniaczki z orzeszkami, najbardziej posmakowaly z ulicznego straganu obok naszego hoteliku w Orchhy. Na okrase catni z owocow mango. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmniammmmmmm...
4 - Raita
The perfect antidote to a chillified mouth, natural yoghurt with added cucumber, tomato, radish, onion, potato or even pineapple, oh how very refreshing!
Nasz niezawodny dodatek do 90% kolacji w Indiach, orientalna wersja mizerii z ogorkiem, rzodkiewka, pomidorem i cebulka na bazie jogurtu, ktora nie dosc ze ukajala niejednokrotnie "przerazone" nadmiarem przypraw podniebienia to i okazala sie mistrzowskim srodkiem na bezproblemowe trawienie.
3 - Malai Kofta(from Joney's place in Agra)
No food should taste this good, seriously! A creamy, nutty, melt-in-your-mouth dream.
To wydarzenie kulinarne bardziej niz zwyczajna potrawa. Zastukajcie w wiosce Taj Ganj do Joney's Cafe i zapytajcie jak nam smakowalo. No ja prawie po raz pierwszy wiersz napisalem. Poezja!
2(and 1) - Onion uttapam
We've got a tie! We just couldn't come to a decision on our top 2. The South Indian eateries come up trumps for our faves. Przem's relationship with the uttapam was legendary in the south. A type of lentil pancake stuffed with onion and potato. Especially good for breakfast.
Moje poludniowo-indyjskie (i singapurskie i malezyjskie...) sniadanie, placek ryzowo-soczewicowy z posiekana czerwona cebulka, czasem pietruszka lub marcheweczka. Proste ale jakie niebotycznie smaczne!
1(and 2) - Masala Dosai
Did Les eat dosai til they came out his ears? Yes he did! Think huge pancake, think curried potato filling, think spicy coconut infused dips, and think shoving it all into your gob with your gooey fingers. I want to eat them every day for every meal until I die!
Cieniutki nalesnik z nadzieniem ziemniaczanym podobnie jak uttapam tez poludniowo-indyjski i tez okraszony sosami mietowym, kokosowym i chilli. Les uzalezniony po dzien dzisiejszy.

Oh wow! They all sound amazing .... mmmmmmmmmm .... I love aloo gobi and saag aloo, but bet they taste SO good where you are Jx
Już tak późno (czyt. zbyt późno, żeby coś jeść) a mnie ślinka cieknie na myśl o tych rarytasach ale bez mrugnięcia okiem zeżarłabym wszytko po kolei jak leci! Całuje! Jadzidzia :-)
I'll have and order of number 7 and 1&2, please... Thali wasn't my favorite dish in the world until someone accually showed me the proper way to eat it (well... the way to mix sambar, poppadum and all those pickles with rice). And from thereon I was stuffung my face with it like a hungry hippo. And there isn't a greater thing in the world other than waking up to best breakfast ever aka masala dosa! For a month i couldn't convince myself to eat something else other than that addictive pancake stuffed with spiced potatoes. Simply but soooo good.Pity they don't sell those in Tescos.
