Where can I find some simple Indian recipes that don't use chilies, fennel, or turmeric?

Here's a good site for recipes:

Although tumeric and chilies are standard components of Indian cuisine, you can certainly cook without them. The same with fennel.

Either omit those ingredients or find recipes that don't use them. If you find a recipe that doens't have tumeric or fennel, but still has chilies, just omit them.

Different regions of India use different spice combinations---so look into dishes from different areas and you may find recipes that suit your taste.

Indian without chilies, fennel or tumeric? It's called Thai food.

Look for Thai curry recipes and I'll bet you'll both like the results. Just keep the spices handy for him to doctor his up to the right spice for his tastes.

I'd make a garam masala out of roughly 4 parts cumin, 3 parts coriander, 2 parts cinnamon, 1 part fenugrek and 1 part black peppercorns (this isn't an exact recipe, and you can vary it in lots of ways - that's the fun). Get the whole versions of these spices if you possibly can, then toast them in a pan until they smoke slightly, pour them into a pestle and mortar and grind them down to powder. Then chop loads of onions (2 for a two person meal) and fry them off with some bay leaves in oil (preferably ghee, but any cooking oil works fine) until they start to brown. Next, add cubes of lamb or chicken and stir franticly until they are cooked on the outside, then turn down the heat and add two or three cloves of garlic and your garam masala. After stirring these in put the lid on your pan and leave it to simmer for 35 minutes on a low light. While you're waiting, put on some long grain rice and throw some whole cumin and cardamon pods into the water for this. Use the timing on the packet to get it ready similtaneously with your curry. When the 35 minutes is up, take the lid of the pan and turn up the heat. Mix in some creamed coconut or natural yoghurt, as well as some spinach and/or coriander leaves and stir until these leaves are wilted. Pick the bay leaves out just before serving. Yummy!

You can use whatever recipe an leave out the chilies, fennel, and turmeric.
