$Rice Based Entrees

Biryanis.
Biryani
These entrees are made by combining rice with spices and seasonings and meats or vegetables. While this method of cooking, may have originated in Iran/Persia. It is in India that the recipes of Biryanis have developed to its current form. Each serving is steamed and baked individually and is accompanied with “raita”’ (a lightly spiced yogurt sauce).

Curried Specialties

During the British rule in India “Curry” was rather a catchall word for anything mottled with hot spices. We would like to define a “Curry “as a dish consisting of meat, fish, chicken or vegetables, simmered in or covered with a sauce, gravy or liquid that is redolent with spices and herbs. And the variations of ingredients, spices and herbs are what make each curry different from the other. Served with side of steamed basmati rice. Substitute with lemon rice or saffron pillau rice for an additional charge. All items are gluten-free.
Makhani Specialty
No dish in India has reached the popularity and fame as much as this has. A rich tomato, butter-based sauce … is what makes this lip smacking delicious.
