I have tried repeatedly to like Indian food, but have failed miserably.

I'm too old for spicy, and I'm sure the hotter it is the better it tastes.

I do like to know what I am eating and have no idea from the menu, so I never know if I will really like it.

I know people really go crazy over it, but just never managed that.

 None of it is hard to make,I mean it’s dirt poor peasant food after all.

 How home made do you want it? You can buy garam masala and everything yourself or just get some Patak’s sauces or pastes. Tikka masala and biryani is as easy as anything. If you can manage frying doughnuts or chicken wings then pakoras and bhajis are easy. Chutneys are as easy as throwing some mint,coriander,garlic and a couple chiles into a food processor and naan might be the easiest bread ever to make.

indian food is food alchemy--more than merely the sum of the various spices added.  The flavors are unique, not just variations of one another.

i prefer southeast asian on the whole, but indian is really special.

  Not all Indian food is spicy by any means. Tikka masala or biryani isn’t any spicier than meatloaf. I get the heat in my Indian food from the chutney and moderate it with the raita but don’t make most of it hot at all.

Not only do a love Indian food, for whatever reason ive always leaned toward the vegetarian dishes. I love Tandoor chicken and lamb...its amazing...but in truth I absolutely love saag paneer, jalfrezi, masala dishes, chana, aloo, gobi, dal....the list goes on. A good plate of biryani and saag kicks ass. Indian is the only kind of food I do this....any other style of food im a meat head. Indian...they actually know how to cook vegetables so they are savory.

You hit the biggies there.  The only thing missing for me would be Palak Paneer.  Love that stuff!  

We usually hit the Indian buffets, but occasionally order from a menu.  Here is the aftermath of our last Indian meal:

Butter Chicken, Goat Curry and Palak Paneer.  The Palak Paneer didn't impress me, but I had finished a dish of butter chicken, so there's that.  When I ate the Palak Paneer the next day, it seemed like one of the most delicious things I've ever eaten.

Best part of Indian is the breads and appetizers. Not the plain boring bread, the ones stuffed with different combinations of shredded chicken, lamb, cauliflower, potatoes, garlic, cheeses. A meal all by itself. Meat stuffed flatbread.

Then the best appetizers are the chicken pakoras (baked chicken, then breaded and fried). Or the vegetable pakoras, craggy shredded veggies in a chickpea batter with spices, fried.
They should look like this
https://myfoodstory.com/vegetable-pakoras-recipe/
https://www.kitchensanctuary.com/chicken-pakora-recipe/

Favorites from my local restaurant:
House special bread -Fine flour bread, stuffed with cauliflower, homemade cheese, chicken tikka, garlic and spices.
Keenan Naan - Fine flour bread, stuffed with ground lamb, fresh ginger, and cilantro.

Chicken Pakora - Chicken fritters dipped in chickpea flour and fried.
Vegetable Pakora - Assorted vegetable fritters gently seasoned and deep fried.
I order one each of the breads and 2 each of the apps. Makes 2 good meals for me.

if you're just going for the sauced main dishes, you're missing out, and those are often the ones that turn people off Indian food. Start with breads and apps as a meal, then beach to the safe choices like Chicken Biryani (like a Chinese fried rice dish).

Avoid Indian buffets, boring choices and poor selection.

Disgusting personal hygiene always makes for the best grub. Chicken been sitting in the corner of the hut where 30 people eat, sleep and scratch their dirty asses? All the more motivation to make weaponized spices so no one can taste the filth.

I order it hot....I generally specify Indian hot not white folk hot, Im obviously not a Indian.  The result is 50/50  they either serve me  something with no heat thinking im confused or they decide to teach me a lesson and pour it in. Generally I'm happy with the extra hot but about 1 in 10 the first bite tastes like regret and I have to Play cool while my guts smolder.

I went (with my wife) to an Indian restaurant in Paris one time.
The waiter spoke in French, so I answered him the same way.
After placing the order, I started talking to my wife (in English).

The waiter paused, then came back to the table:

"Are you English"?
"yes, we are"
"Ah, so you want me to ask the cook to make this properly?"
"Yes, please!"

It was very good!

---

I was always amused by watching French people in an Indian restaurant ordering something like a Vindaloo, then spending ages selecting a wine to go with it.
I was always so tempted to just say "Fuck it!, you are not going to taste it anyway, so just order anything. Or better still do it properly and order a beer".

There was a little cafe on my college campus that sold the fucking best chicken tikka masala and his sister made samosas once in a while. I ate it several times a week.

Now I'm lucky if I get it once or twice a year.

I love me some Indian food. We will use the packets when making it at home to make it easy but a good garam masala can segue onto a lot of good dishes. There are some thinks like fresh curry leaves that bring flavors that you cannot substitute. Also most spices are fried in Ghee prior to other ingredients are added to them.

Several different masalas are used the basic is cinnamon, green cardamom, black pepper, star anise, Bay leaf, whole clove all pan roasted and ground. I use a coffee grinder and store the excess in a sealed container that you wont use for anything else. I use it as a base for curries, roast chicken, ect. This is a greatfor Chai Masala, add a few tablespoons of whole black tea, a tablespoon or 2 of Garam Masala and sugar. Add water bring to a simmer add milk bring to quick boil and shut off heat. Strain into cups.

I haven't had much of it, but what I had I liked.

Ten or twenty years ago, my cousin took me to a place on the North Side of Chiraq that had an all you can eat Sunday buffet.  It was very good.

There are a few places here in NE Ohio.  I've never been to any of them.

I see stuff like this and then I wonder if Indians lament their countrymen who are not willing to try American burgers, all they
eat is Indian food, like some uncultured swine. "Can you believe this guy? He isn't a culinary explorer like me!"
