Try some of the recipes posted on the thread "Like Thai Food, Miss Spuds". Some are Indianish.

"Paneer" is not restricted to goats. In fact it should be from cows milk, just like "ghee".

Bina, I make it from milk from the supermarket, but tastes just as good...love it especially in that bread stuff thats a little salty.

Good site Udon! I'll peruse it and the cheque will be in the post.

I note in the list of "Indian ingredients" there is only one entry for 'cardamom'. I have recipes that require either black or white/green cardamom but I have been unable to find black cardamom anywhere around here (even Malaysia and Singapore). I have them hand carried from UK.

Jay, by 'black' do you mean the outer shell or the black seeds inside the shell.?

Both the shrivelled shell and the seeds are black. I used to use the ground up seeds for making garam masala but it was a pain in the arse getting the skins off. I think they are mostly used for adding flavour in their whole form (slit) and then discarded prior to serving.

Do they have a website, steve?

Not that I'm short of anything at the moment but it will be good for future reference.
