 From The Pot

• Dry Meat Curry £5.00
  • Perhaps not the most appetising of names but beneath that dry exterior is a dish worthy of revenance. We prefer to use beef & ground spices. Dark & intense with almost caramelized bites of pulled meat. Very little water is added therefore gravy less. Think bhuna but more smokey, more savoury.
• Haandi Cooked Chicken £4.50
  • Eminently warming, flavoursome thigh & breast meat slow cooked in the Bengali home style with ginger, garlic, lime, black pepper & finished with fragrant coriander.
• Afghan Lamb Haleem £4.50
  • Cooked for a minimum of 5 hours, with potato, chickpeas, green moung & red masoor lentils with added marrowbone for flavour. Best eaten with hot roti.
• Mutton Chop Bhuna £9.00
  • What makes this plate special is the bhuna element. This involves pan frying the chops with selected spices & ginger. The meat cooks in their own juices thus producing a wonderful gravy.
• Chicken Tikka Jalfrezi £4.50
  • Spicy grilled chicken fillets stir fried with bell peppers, shallots, green chillies, julienne ginger, tomato & fresh coriander.
• British Chicken Tikka Masala £4.50
  • Mild & creamy needing little introduction.
• Chicken Tikka Korma £4.50

• Railway Chicken Curry £9.00
