I am not vegetarian and not Indian but my boy friend is and I want to learn how to cook either Indian food or vegetarian food. Where can I find good recipes or how could I make an outstanding meal for him?

Have him teach you!! How fun to go shoppin at an upscale trendy grocer, going over the specific brands he uses and how he picks his vegatbles...
Picking a wine or beer together... If he doesn't drink - non-alcoholic champagne is suprisingly good, esp when chilled!
oh - and ussing curry? Throw it in a pan with some water... bring it to a boil (yes I sad pan - not a pot). Just a little water - enough to make it a paste... then boil out the water back to a powder... now you have some awesome curry ready to put into your cookin!!
Cheers!

An easy way to start cooking Indian vegetarian food is with a vegetable biryani. I'll link to a good recipe below. Generally, it's just rice and vegetables cooked together in an herbed yogurt sauce. You can be flexible in your vegetables- the first time I made it we used peas, potatoes, tomatoes and bell peppers.

www.indianrecipestotaste have lots of ideas. I am the same as you, that I am not vegetarian and not indian. Outstanding meals are beans and pulses and lentils. Enjoy.

Look on the net or go to a store where they sell authentic Indian cuisine cook books.

There are lots of good cookbooks out there, even in the library if you aren't ready to buy. Just remember that no matter what you make, it will probably not be as authentic as his momma's home cooking, so maybe it would be easier to prepare something that he didn't grow up eating.

Talk to his Mom, they are usually the best source of info for that. Also try taking a class in that subject.
Good Luck
