The Indo-Chinese recipes are one of the hot favorites among Indians. I have no clue how the Indo-Chinese became so popular. And what are the origins of it. Maybe it’s time for some research. If you are aware of it, let me know through the comments.

You would find lot of restaurants in every nook and corner of India selling the Indo-Chinese cuisine. Watching the chefs toss up the fried rice in big kadais over high heat is surely a treat to the eyes. Though I have always been intrigued that such supposed to be “Indo-Chinese” restaurants also serve some delicious parotas as well. Ha ha, we, Indians, are known to be multi-talented.

I can’t remember what was the first Indo-Chinese dish that I tried. Maybe it was vegetable manchurian with disastrous results. Yes, I did have my fair share of disasters in the kitchen. There, now the cat is out of the bag now. I tried the chilli paneer much later but it was a recipe that I got it right the first time I tried.
