A timeless favourite, the Korma is full of flavour. 🍛

This gently spiced curry is slow-cooked into a smooth, creamy sauce, thickened with coconut and almond for a beautifully rounded finish. It’s available with your choice of chicken or lamb - a classic done the right way. 🍽️

There’s a difference between grabbing food and actually sitting down for a meal. 🍽️

If you like a bit of heat, the Jalfrezi is always a solid choice. 🌶️

Cooked in our signature sauce with green peppers, spring onions, and fresh green chillies, it’s a dish that brings bold flavour and a lively kick. Choose from chicken, lamb, or king prawns to suit your mood. Vibrant, spicy, and full of energy from the first bite. 🔥🍽️✨

Let’s be honest - an Indian meal doesn’t really begin until the poppadoms arrive. 🥘

Light, crisp, and made for sharing, they’re the perfect way to ease into the evening alongside a selection of dips and good conversation. A simple ritual, but one that always feels just right. 🍽️✨

Lightly spiced with a touch of herbs and grilled to bring out their natural flavour, they’re served with a cooling yoghurt dip that balances everything beautifully. A simple yet satisfying starter that sets the tone for what’s to come. 🍽️✨

From our vegetarian selection, meet the Saag Aloo. 🌿🥔

A comforting blend of tender spinach and potatoes, gently cooked with light spices, onions, peppers, tomatoes, and fresh coriander. Bursting with flavour yet beautifully balanced, it’s perfect as a side to complement your meal or enjoy it as a satisfying main all on its own. 🥘
