Indian-Inspired

Saag Paneer with White Cheddar and Whole Milk (Intestinal Body Type)

Restaurant-style saag without the heavy cream or the paneer. Cooked spinach, half puréed and half chopped, simmers in butter-bloomed spices and whole milk, then gets a plain-yogurt finish and cold cubes of low-fat white cheddar, the one cheese Carolyn Mein rates Frequently for the Intestinal type.

Dutch-Oven Butter Chicken Drumsticks with Whole Milk and a Crisp Finish

Butter chicken that keeps its roasted character. Bone-in drumsticks are seared hard, braised in a tomato-spice base until they pull from the bone, crisped separately at high heat, then set back into a creamy sauce finished with whole milk and butter instead of heavy cream.
