Date: June 01, 2007 07:10PM Dear all,
I am new to raw food and been raw for like two months or so now. I wanted to share a few Indian recipes (Iam Indian and sooooo used to eating spicy foods, so thats what I miss in raw) I tried these and loved them. Enjoy!!! Kosambari Soak Mung beans (Mung dhal) in water for about 4 hours Cut into small pieces, carrots, onions, tomatoes and cucumber and cilantro. Toss in with the soaked mung beans and add the following spices Lemon juice Sea salt paprika Rasam powder (This is available at any Indian Grocery store) or make your own (cumin powder, pepper powder and dried red chilly powder and any other spices you love/ crave) Indian tomato soup Dry grind the following: Cumin (available at any Indian grocery store) 1 tbsp pepper 1/2 tbsp dried red chillies 2 Or buy rasam powder or chaat powder from any Indian grocery stores Puree three ripe tomatoes and add some dehydrated onions to it or add onion powder Mix in the spice dry powder and blend it all together Add a few chunks of very ripe tomato and also some cilantro. Enjoy!!! Fruit chaat (Spicy fruit) Chaat masala (available at any Indian Grocery store) Banana 1 Apple 1 Mango 1 ripe Cut into square pieces all the fruit and add some cold pressed olive oil. Add 1 tsp of chaat masala to this, and add some sea salt (just a little) This is so amazing. New way to eat and enjoy fruit for those who like Spicy stuff or for raw fooders who like Indian food.

Date: June 01, 2007 07:36PM I just realized I forgot to add the spicy curry recipe:
Spicy potato curry (or any vegetable you like, such as eggplant,carrots or even apples) Cut potatoes (or any veg) into thin strips and leave in dehydrator until slighly brown and somewhat crispy. But not too crispy. teh curry should be soft not crunchy like chips. To the dehydrated potatoes (or vegetable) add the following: Onion powder (or dehydrated onions) 1/2 minced garlic 1/2 spoon lemon juice curry leaves (dry) paprika or chilly powder (from Indian stores) Add curry powder 1/2 spoon or 1 spoon if you have that kind of courage Fresh cilantro 1 Tsp Toss these in a bowl and add little lemon juice or tamarind (Indian stores) juice if you like the sour taste. Add sea salt and toss some more. This is also delicious and although it requires preparation time (like dehydrating the vegetables), I like this one a lot. Enjoy. Anu PS: I will post chutney recipes later (my favorite: Coconut chutney) Re: Raw Indian food recipes

Date: July 11, 2007 04:12AM Oh, wonderful! These are just what I needed. I've always eaten very spicy food and I miss Indian food especially. Could I use garam masala instead of the rasam? I don't have any chilis at the moment. Re: Raw Indian food recipes

Date: July 11, 2007 06:50PM garam masals is just fine, but it is not spicy though, you may need lots of paprika and some garam masala. Also traditional Indian tomato soups are very simlar o the rasam (cooked), so I prefer rasam powder. I will also try this with garam masala and will post my finding.
