Part 1 here. More proof of my housewife-ly skills.
Exhibit a) “Typical South Indian”
Carrot சாம்பார்: 
& சாதம்: 
(Aside: When people accuse Madras of being a ‘idli-sambar’ place, do they realise how cosmopolitan that is?)
Exhibit b) “Typical North Indian”
राजमा और चावल: 
& चन्ना: 
Exhibit c) “Typical Italian”
Penne al’Arrabiata with Garlic Bread: 
Exhibit d) “Typical Western European/American”
Smoked Salmon: 
I must confess, the smoked salmon is not my preparation. Dave, a classmate, brought the salmon and, um, made it for us as part of a large Christmas lunch.

Chandru, brilliant culinary masterpieces by offshore bachelor standards!
Looks like you have insulated yourself well against the traditional donner-kebab and crappy-pathetic-excuse-of-an-indian-ready-to-cook-supermarket-meal!
