How can I enjoy spicy Indian food if I’m not used to a lot of heat?

If you’re new to spicy Indian food, start slow and build your tolerance. Choose milder dishes like butter chicken, tikka masala, or vegetable korma. These meals highlight rich flavors without too much heat. You can also pair spicy dishes with cooling sides like raita (yogurt dip), naan bread, or basmati rice. These sides help balance the spice. At Desi Angrez, you can ask for less spice when you order. This way, your meal suits your taste. Over time, your palate will adapt. You may even enjoy trying spicier dishes later.
