Tiger,Indian dishes on the whole is spicy where as typical mizo food is quite bland,mostly cooked whether it is meat or vegetable( a bit like how the English have their Vegetables).A favourite of mine is cauliflower with eggs :Cut the cauliflower into tiny florets,dip it in whisked egg and fry it in hot oil till it turns slightly brown.This is quick, easy and quite crunchy.

You should also check this disucssion over alt.english.usage
Word to describe this taste ?
We have a word in my language for a taste that’s not sweet, bitter or
any other taste with a common English name that I know of, although it
can have any of these other tastes at the same time. It’s that (usually
pleasant) sensation produced by eating meat or nuts, but is not
confined to the taste of any particular edible matter. The best way I
can think of describing it is by saying that it’s the taste of MSG.

You might like to try this one, Tiger.
1) cut up the lettuce
2)add slices of red or sweet onions (watever kind that u like)
3) cook baby carrots in hot water for a few secs ( just to make it soft n crunchy), slices up in a thin strips.
4) chop up some few grape tomatoes – Mix all the above ingredients
5) grindup some roasted peanuts in a food processor (set aside)
6) in a sauce pan heat-up about 2- 3 tablespoons of olive oil, when it becomes really hot, pour it down to yr salad, toss it with the roasted peanuts add salt n pepper to yr taste.. mix together really well n wallla you have a Mizo salad. ( Its my Mom recipe by the way).
You can use this for appetizer with crakers n a slices of mozarella cheese. Bon Appetit.

ok tiger here we go,,,, yum yum
easy to make, oriental dish
chillies, onions , bamboo shoot, mushroom, cabbage and soya sauce
ok grill some onions and 2chillis with oil de sunflower for a minute
put bamboo shoots and mushroom , add water,and let it boil
add the cut cabbages (maximum 3 leaves)along with the others for a minute . only for a minute if not over cooked cabbages stinks.
and then,, add two table spoons of soya sauce
et voila,, you can enjoy your meal with a fine french wine .
You can buy soya sauce and bamboo on chinese or arabic shop
be careful when you buy bamboos , buy the ones which are preserved with water ,, as the one preserved with acid smells tres degulas

I know for sure in mizoram we dont know such things as appetizer lolz we just DIG IN!! lolz

traditional mizo dishes are mostly just plain boiled in water,with just salt and chillies,and bekang(fermented soyabeans,and saum(fermented pork fats),they stink bad and is an acquired taste) i love mizo food,but i also know, its not something to cook when u have non-mizo frens over,unless if u modify it abit with chinese sauces or other herbs and spices.mizos did have sesame (chhawhchhi)seeds traditionally,and adding it to boiled pork or chicken or salads can count as mizo dishes i guess..:) i think ar buhchiar (chicken boiled with water and a handful of rice and a lil salt and ginger )is the most palatable mizo dish for non mizos…imho
