<p>--Love to cook. Am always on the look out for nice recipes for Indian dishes from different regions of India! --Not the stereotypical Chicken Tikka Masala or Chicken Makhani (aka: butter chicken). I like the recipes that have been passed down that are not found in an Indian Restaurant. <img title=Cool src=/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-cool.gif border=0 alt=Cool /></p>
