Healthy Indian food can be easy to prepare at home. I like recipes that only require a cookie sheet and don’t require me to do a lot of cleanup.

Curry dishes can be healthy or unhealthy, depending on whether you use high fat coconut milk and fatty meats or curry powder and lots of vegetables.

Why not learn how to make healthy Indian food at home instead of frequenting restaurants with high calorie versions?

Warm Curry Roasted Vegetable Salad

Here is a healthy Indian food recipe from one of my favorite recipe websites, Skinnytaste. This nourishing Warm Curry Roasted Vegetable Salad with Honey Curry Dressing is a delicious vegetarian, gluten- and dairy-free dinner or make-ahead lunch.

INGREDIENTS (serves 4)

  • olive oil spray
  • 1 1/2 pounds peeled and diced sweet potato, 1/2-inch cubes (from 2 large or 3 small)
  • 2 red bell peppers, cut 1-inch cubes
  • 1 large red onion, quartered and halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

For the salad dressing:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon cumin

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Spray a large sheet pan with oil.
  2. Mix the sweet potato, red pepper and onion with oil, vinegar, cumin, curry powder and salt and toss well.
  3. Transfer to the prepared sheet pan. Bake 20 minutes, tossing halfway until the vegetables begin to soften, add the broccoli (spritz it with olive oil) and cook 15 to 18 more minutes, until the sweet potatoes are browned and tender.
  4. While the vegetables are cooking, mix the salad dressing together in a large bowl.
  5. Remove the roasted veggies from the oven and while still hot, toss them into the large bowl with the salad dressing.
  6. Divide equally between 4 bowls.
