As your intrepid readers tackle part two of Miss Timmins' School for Girls, we needed a little sustenance. And who wouldn't after reading about dishes like chicken with cardamom and crushed cashews, carrots with grated coconut and ginger (both page 85) and spiced chai (page 87)? So we asked Chatelaine's food editor, Claire, to help us come up with an Indian-inspired menu to set the mood as we read. Here's what she recommended:

Starter: Tandoori Shrimp with Mango Salad

Sides: Baingan Bhartha and Indian-spice Cauliflower
