Pennsylvania Dutch Corn & Potato Chowder from Starting with Ingredients

Quick and simple. This is unlikely to be the best chowder you've ever eaten, but it's a simple, reliable and good-tasting soup. Takes less than 30mins. read more >

Lord Krishna's Cuisine: The Art of Indian Vegetarian Cooking

By Yamuna Devi
Bhaktivedanta Book Trust - 1987

Dryish potato curry with a tomato sauce. Simple to make (although the recipe told you to make a spice mix and then didn't tell you when to add it to the rest of the recipe...). It was pretty good but I don't think I would cook it again, mainly because I know nicer dry potato curry recipes! (one on the previous page to this one).

Crusty potatoes with white poppy seeds : page 191

Potatoes marinated in seasoned yogurt, then fried off until the yogurt makes a nice crust. The flavour of the seasoned yogurt is delicious.

I actually ate this with some yogurt on the side - not yoghurt overkill, as this dish is pretty dry by the time it's finished cooking.

Panir and peas in mint tomato sauce : page 350

Tasty panir recipe. But I would add the peas from frozen and closer to the end. Not very authentically Indian, but personal preference.
