Well, is there anything I should rule out? Besides a lot of spice? I can just steer clear of anything I know you don't like.
[ He's very earnest about this, settling her close against him and playing idly with her hair. ]
I'd even say it doesn't necessarily have to be Indian, but I've been told that my Italian cooking could get me whacked by the mob, so...probably not that.
There's a list. ( she shakes ger head slightly at herself. this was the side of her allergy that was the most annoying part ) I'm not allergic to any of them just... sensitive. Sometimes. Depending on the day.
( some items she just avoided for the worst of it, some she risked, some were very hard to avoid but weren't that bad. she'd text him the list )
And you have me too curious about your Indian to offer anything else. I want a taste of home. Mildly.
I'll make it work. It's the fun sort of challenge.
[ And it is, really, kind of like a puzzle, figuring out what he can substitute where and still keep the spirit of a dish the same. Cooking has always been a relaxing hobby, and experimenting with it--especially for the benefit of the people he's come to care about, from all their different backgrounds--is part of the appeal. ]

My mother taught me a few things but I've never enjoyed cooking that much. Not just for me.

( if swiss cheese was at the heart of a dish it made a difference but she would be able to work around it )
If I can find ingredients... maybe. But I haven't looked at what there is yet.
