Easy and quick food recipes?

My mum is going away next week and I need some good recipes but the rest of my family is picky and they don't like foreign foods. My dad's favourite is quiche and the rest of my family like stuff like that. I'm not that bigger fan I like curry and sashimi and stuff like that! Can you help me out? Maybe a comprise of both?Easy and quick food recipes?
A combination of a pastry dish and an Indan dish, enjoy!


Little Indian-spiced vegetable pies with raita





Ingredients (serves 4)


2 tsp cumin seeds


2 tsp coriander seeds


1/4 tsp dried chilli flakes


1/2 tsp garam masala


60ml (1/4 cup) olive oil


1 large parsnip, peeled

4 (25 x 25cm) shortcrust pastry sheets


1 egg, lightly beaten


1/2 tsp mild paprika


Mango chutney and raita*, to serve


Method


Preheat the oven to 200掳C.


Place cumin and coriander seeds and dried chilli in a mortar and pestle and grind coarsely (or you can use 1 teaspoon each of ground cumin and coriander). Combine spices with garam masala and oil. Season with salt and pepper.


Chop parsnip, onion, zucchini and sweet potato into equal-sized pieces, toss in oil mixture, add garlic and curry leaves and spread onto a flat baking tray. Roast for 40 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden at the edges. Set aside to cool (this can be done in advance). Add the tomatoes and toss to combine.


Use a 23cm round template to cut out 4 circles from pastry and place on a greased baking sheet. Divide vegetables between pastry rounds, leaving a 3cm border. Turn border in, fluting the edges. Brush edges with egg and sprinkle with paprika.


Bake for 25 minutes until golden. Serve with chutney and raita.Easy and quick food recipes?
