Thanks Karen, these ideas are great! I just knew you'd know what to do. I especially like the frozen one, think I may have to do that. There was a sale at the gourmet food store so I bought the rosewater today, yay!
We're going to do buffet style because it's a Bollywood party, we'll eat and watch dance numbers from Bollywood movies. As for the menu we're still working on it but here's the basic plan: we'll have lamb korma, I have a recipe I really like with crispy onions on top. Also shrimp in cilantro/green chili sauce, saag paneer, cauliflower. Also saffron rice for the carb eaters among us and several condiments of course. I guess we'll make a cucumber salad too, and maybe some chunks of melon, to cut the spiciness.
Also a few of the guests can cook and they're bringing a vegetable curry (not sure yet what's in it ), a chicken dish, and a lentil dish. Another guest is bringing naan from a local restaurant. We'll have Kingfisher beer and Shiraz wine (recommended by the snooty Colin Cowie to go with Indian). I'm a little alarmed by the prospect of feeding 12, but looking over this menu I think we'll be okay
