Thanksgiving is a time to gather with loved ones, express gratitude, and indulge in a feast that reflects the diversity of flavors. While traditional turkey, stuffing, and mashed potatoes are staples, why not infuse your Thanksgiving table with the aromatic and vibrant spices of Indian cuisine? Join us this month, as one of your favorite restaurants in Nashua, India Palace, is exploring some Indian-inspired dishes to incorporate into your dinner this holiday!
Butternut Squash Bharta
Swap out the classic mashed butternut squash for a Butternut Squash Bharta. Roast the squash until it’s tender, then mash it with aromatic spices like cumin, coriander, and garam masala. The result is a rich and flavorful side dish that pairs perfectly with the Thanksgiving spread. Garnish with fresh cilantro for a burst of freshness.
Samosas with Cranberry Chutney
Kick off your Thanksgiving feast with a crowd-pleasing appetizer – Samosas with Cranberry Chutney. These crispy, triangular pastries filled with spiced potatoes and peas are a beloved Indian snack. Serve them alongside a tangy cranberry chutney for a sweet and savory combination that will have your guests coming back for more.
Green Bean Chili Garlic Stir-Fry
Give the classic green bean casserole a makeover with a Green Bean Chili Garlic Stir-Fry. Sauté fresh green beans with chili, garlic, and a hint of ginger for a bold and flavorful side dish. The vibrant colors and bold flavors will add a touch of excitement to your Thanksgiving table, and the crunch of the green beans will provide a refreshing contrast to the heartier dishes.
Tandoori Turkey
Take the star of the Thanksgiving show – the turkey – to new heights with a Tandoori Turkey. Marinate the turkey in a mixture of yogurt and traditional tandoori spices like cumin, coriander, and turmeric and roast. The result is a succulent and flavorful turkey that pays homage to the rich culinary heritage of India.
Cardamom-Spiced Pumpkin Pie
No Thanksgiving feast is complete without a slice of pumpkin pie. Incorporate some Indian flavors into this classic dessert by adding a hint of cardamom to the pumpkin filling. The warm and citrusy notes of cardamom will elevate the pie to new heights, providing a sweet ending to your Indian-inspired Thanksgiving celebration!
