So if you are spending the afternoon at the pool, the park, or dining in, here are some great Indian foods to eat this summer.

Cater to your cravings

Summer weekends tend to be jam-packed with events. Be it a sporting event, birthday party, or family reunion, catering can make it easy to cross food off any to-do list. Catering Indian dishes is a fantastic way to add authentic flavor and bright recipes to your celebrations. 

Tastes of bold spices, freshly baked Naan and a vibrant Kheer are a great way to feed your hungry guests. Take some time to learn about the Indian food caterers in your area to pick just the right menu. 

In the meantime, for some delicious inspiration, take a look at these tasty menu items.

Nothing will delight your crowd more than offering crispy Samosas and Samosa Chat for appetizers. And dipping Vegetable Pakora into savory sauces is a great way to start any party.

When it comes to the entrees, any of the following dishes are sure to wow. Biryani has to be one of the most famous Indian dishes in the world. The instantly recognizable sight of Basmati rice and the aroma of rich spices instantly perk up the appetite. A creamy tomato sauce accompanied by green pepper and onion makes Chicken Tikka Masala easy to add to your catering order. Finally, tender boneless chicken perfectly seasoned is what makes Chicken 65 so incredibly irresistible.

Grab and Go

For those summer days when you are out and about, Indian food will stop pesky hunger pains. Pick up these tasty treats the next time you are on the go. 

When only spice and fresh veggies will do, try a Chili Chicken Wrap. Easy to eat at a picnic in the park or on a blanket on the sand. For a yummy meatless Monday option, go with the Paneer Tikka Wrap. You won’t miss a thing with those BBQ flavors and traditional seasonings! For a lunch with all the bells and whistles, choose a Lunch Box. They are served with Naan, two curries, rice, and a dessert.

Order a Bowl

On those hot days when you just are too tired to think and starving, make life easy and scrumptious with a Butter Chicken Bowl. With this dish, outstanding Indian cuisine really shines. When you order a Bowl, you get not only the fabulous Butter Chicken but also rice, Chana Masala, fresh onion, lettuce, cucumbers, carrots, cilantro, and fried chilies. If you are super hungry, order a large one. If not, go with the regular-sized portion.

A Lighter Bite

Order a tasty appetizer or two when you need just a bite to tide you over until dinner time. Indian cuisine has a wide variety of great starters to keep a grumbling belly at bay. From a filling Mulligatawny soup, a mixed veggie-based basket, or a refreshing Kachumber salad, there is something on the menu to make your taste buds happy! Papri Chat, Bhel Puri, and Pan Puri are also great options.

The Main Entrée

Whether you are eating on your back patio, overlooking beautiful Lake Erie, or having dinner with friends, Indian food is always a fantastic choice. 

With so many delectable menu items to choose from, making up your mind on what to order is no easy task! If you are looking for a mildly spicy Indian dish, go with Aloo Gobi. Cauliflower and potatoes are the base, finished delightfully with just the right amount of seasoning. For a more robust flavor, try the tangy curry that is Vindaloo. For something truly unique, consider Shahi Khorma. It has fresh ginger, garlic, yogurt, Garam Marsala, and tender chicken producing a one-of-a-kind taste. 

As you can see, this time of year is terrific to try some Indian cuisine. Make sure you enjoy a meal before the season ends! The flavors and spices of India make any meal a celebration to relish.
