      I am Indian and she can’t stand anything except tandoori chicken, nan and biryani/rice dishes (we don’t eat that on a DAILY basis plus most of my family is vegetarians). That means none of the regular vegetables and side dishes. And I don’t like PORK without which a Chinese would almost die but I might compromise on that dish.

      She also tries to deliberately poke fun at me by saying she’ll make me eat frogs and reptiles.

      We both are right now studying in Australia and thinking of sharing an apartment – need tips.

      It’s a serious argument and I’m really worried that such massive differences may actually affect the relationship

      I have known her since 21 days only and don’t want to lose here on these trifles.
      though it’s 21 days only, we’re quite serious already!

      I am just looking for some ideas on some quick, low-fat recipes, or food items that don’t include vegetables, except green beans or mushrooms she actually likes those. Any ideas would help, thanks!

      I’m in Conyers, and there is no Indian food near here. I’m convenient to Loganville, Snellville, Lithonia, Decatur.

      I’m going out for a work meal at a Indian restaurant, but don’t want anything hot or with nuts. Don’t really know much about indian cuisine, so any help would be fab! Can you recommend anything?

      I know what each seed looks like, but could you tell me the difference in flavor between one and the other ?

      Also: when do you use each kind ? What influences your decision to use shahi jeera rather than jeera — or: the other way around ?

      thank you
