Indian food is not so difficult to make once u know the basics.try some recipes from food network that's what I did last week.It was good.also u can buy a book and u don't need to put that many spices. Just add basic spices like turmeric powder,black pepper,salt and crushed red chillies if u can handle them.good luck

learning india food is like doing masters in cooking in this cuisine,
u have to cook from heart.every time adding any spice u have to ask ur heart how much u want in the food.u have to be very good in calculating the taste before making the actual food. dont be affraid its very easy,it comes with experience.
go to some good india food sites and start with simle things like making pilaf.

SWISS CHARD WITH INDIAN LIME PICKLE
The health benefits: almost 25 percent of the RDA for magnesium in 1/2 cup cooked chard; 20 percent of the RDA for vitamin A; almost 25 percent of your potassium quota.
1/8 cup mild lime pickle (an Indian condiment found at gourmet or Indian food stores or online at EthnicGrocer.com)
3 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 tbsp salt
2 bunches Swiss chard, stems and tough central spines removed
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 small shallot, minced
1 tsp lemon zest, grated on small or medium blade
In a blender, combine lime pickle, lemon juice, and oil and puree until smooth, adding water as necessary to create a liquid. Set aside. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil and add 1 tbsp salt. Prepare an ice bath (a large bowl of ice water with 1 tbsp salt). Add chard to the pot and boil until bright green and very tender (9 to 12 minutes). Drain chard in a colander, submerge briefly in the ice bath to stop cooking, drain again in colander and squeeze to release most of the water. Set aside. Heat butter in a large sauté pan on medium heat. When butter is melted, add shallot, sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper, cover, reduce heat to low and sauté until shallot is translucent, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Add chard, lime-pickle puree, lemon zest, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix vigorously. Serve warm.

Grind some wild sage
Put hunks of Buffalo on rocks and season with sage to suit.
