Makan Kitchen's Little India featuring Chef Rajendra , represented the authentic indian cuisine from North India =D




Mostly ,  Northern Indian cuisine has more ginger or garlic and uses mustard oil to cook. The differences between Northern and Southern Indian food is

Northern Indian food are sweeter and  creamier while southern Indian food are usually spicier.
So , as a conclusion  Northern Indian = creamy, southern Indian = banana leaf rice style  =D

Assorted naan bread ( he holding) - E.g: garlic naan and cheese naan. Eaten with mint sauce, cucumber raita, lime and onion ring, mango chutney and  papadom .

                                                                  Dhall Tadka

                 made with chickpeas, also northern Indian style, therefore  it will  taste sweeter ^^


                  One of my favourite dishes =D  Not salty and full with meat =p I love this meat ball~!




                                                             Salmon Tandoori

   Marinated with yoghurt, ginger garlic paste, tumeric powder, garam masala . It taste good =D















                                                                 Lamb Biryani

           It cooked with  basmati rice ( long grain rice ) so will be more fragrant  =)




For our better understanding , Chef Rajendra further explained  each dishes 's  ingredients : 

Lamb Kofta Curry - cooked with onion gravy, ginger and  garlic paste.  Panner Kadai - cottage cheese cooked in milk, yoghurt, onion gravy, tomato gravy. Chicken Makhani - Chicken chop marinated with  mint chutney, grilled chilli paste.
