Recommended Meal – March

The local eateries with go up against the best Asian restaurants and takeaways from around Scotland after more than 10,000 people voted online for their favourite venues, with 70 businesses making the shortlist.

Hosted by BBC News anchor Samantha Simmonds, the gala dinner and awards ceremony will take place at The Sheraton Grand Hotel in Edinburgh on September 18.

The awards, being held for the seventh time, are organised by the Asian Catering Federation (ACF).

ACF chairman Yawar Khan said: “We are seeing some remarkable creativity by pioneering restaurateurs and chefs, adapting to challenging trading conditions and more sophisticated customer preferences, showcasing Scotland’s world-leading produce, especially its seafood, game, neeps and tatties.”

Our March Meal of the Month is something a bit special with two different and special breads as well as one of the classic Chicken curries that we reckon is hard to beat. Not only is it a great meal to eat here in our restaurant, but it will travel well too if you can’t get out and want a takeaway to enjoy in peace!

Starter – Chicken Puri

Beautiful puffed bread served with a flavoursome spiced sauce containing beautiful pieces of chicken. Not only is this is a starter that doesn’t require cutlery, there is every chance you’ll end up licking the plate too – it’s that good.

Main – Chicken Tikka Balti

Beloved of Birmingham – the Balti is a great curry cooked in a bucket (not really – but in a flat bottomed balti dish)! Our chef’s special version contains lovely garlic, onions and fresh herbs in a medium spiced sauce and whichever meat you are after. Our recommendation for March is the Chicken Tikka variety with the classic taste of marinated barbecued chicken.

Side – Bombay Aloo

The first recommendation here is the spiced potato dish Bombay Aloo – similar to the classic Sag Aloo – but without the spinach.

Bread – Keema Naan

Accompany this with the meatiness of a great Keema naan.

Rice – Pilau Rice

And with the great range of tastes in pilau rice.
