A Collation of Indian Foods

I made saag paneer completely from scratch and it is so much better than anything I’ve had in restaurants (a testament to the overall lack of great Indian food in Portland more than my cooking prowess, but freshness goes a long way). The boar korma (boarma?) will definitely be revisited, and the sourdough naan was totally worth the trouble, even though I baked it on a cast iron flat top instead of a tandoor.

I made a veritable feast of Indian food tonight! Clockwise from upper left: cucumber raita, mint-cilantro chutney, aloo gobi masala, rice, homemade sourdough rye nan, masoor dal, and the centerpiece: boar korma with @nicky.usa wild boar stew meat, @bollywoodtheaterpdx pomegranate-Darjeeling pale ale and about a million spices. Since I was serving this to my little bird (who can’t handle too much heat) I left out the chile and just doused my own plate with @spicymarshall Serrano-lemongrass sauce, which was the perfect pairing. 🍛🥘 🍖🍚🌱 🍞🥔🌶#meatconcierge #wildboar #feralswine #boar #pork #indianfood #aloogobi #wildgame #korma #masala #nan #dal #vegetarian #chutney #mint #bread #stew #food52 #f52grams #instafood #bonappetit #beer #portlandoregon #homecooking #spice #raita #yogurt #foodstagram #instafood #huffposttaste #buzzfeedfood
