This is a piece of heaven!!!! I'm doing this saturday for family and friens, do you recommend anything to go with it?

Hi dacezo. In India, people usually serve chai after a meal or in the evenings at tea time, sometimes with Indian sweets that are often milk-based and very sweet. So my suggestion would be to serve it with a sweet treat that will offset and compliment the spiciness. Enjoy!
