Hi, I used to go out with an Indian guy and spent many happy times around his families dining room table. The food his mother cooked was wonderful. I have never been able to replicate it and Indian restaurants do not give home cooked food. Please could I have recipies made in normal Indian family homes.
Thank you very much.

Of course I have searched Google, many times. Most recipies are not from authentic Indian homes, I have tried them. I really wanted genuine Indian Mums to help me.

Indian mothers rule! They are the best cooks, freshly prepared with lots of love!

I am not sure what part of India he was from, otherwise I could give you a better ides of the food. It differs greatly depending on what state. But I have a wonderful website for you:

India is a sub continent, and the cuisines many and varied.

Depending on your friend's mother ethnicity, there are too many recipes to list - and you may be remembering something entirely different.
Also, a lot of Indian home cooking is not standardized, spice mixtures are often made at home once or twice a year, and I would suggest you go through a list of Indian cooking websites - until you find one you like.

www.ndtvcooks.com is the equivalent of FoodTV
www.bawarchi.com is a good website for North Indian recipes
www.tarladalal.com is more Central India
www.pachakam.com specializes in South India cuisine
