Whether you’re a seasoned lover of Indian food or exploring it for the first time, here are the top 5 must-try dishes that define the Black Cumin experience.
Gilafi Seek Kebab
Start your culinary journey with the flavor-packed Gilafi Seek Kebab. These succulent minced lamb kebabs are beautifully spiced, skewered, and cooked in a tandoor for a smoky finish. What makes them unique is the ‘gilafi’— a colorful outer coat of finely chopped bell peppers and herbs that not only enhances the visual appeal but also adds an extra layer of crunch and freshness. Served with mint chutney, this starter sets the tone for a rich dining experience ahead.
Chicken Labrador
This is comfort food, Indian style. Chicken Labrador is a rich and creamy dish made with boneless chicken pieces simmered in a velvety tomato and onion gravy, accented with cashew paste and aromatic spices. Unlike a typical butter chicken, this dish offers a slightly tangier flavor with a spiced depth that lingers. Its the perfect companion to soft naan or jeera rice and a true testament to our mastery of classic North Indian cooking.
Dal Makhani
No Indian meal is complete without a great lentil dish, and Dal Makani at Black Cumin is pure indulgence. Made with slow-cooked black lentils and red kidney beans, the dal is simmered overnight and finished with cream and butter for a rich, smooth texture. The result? It is a comforting and hearty bowl of goodness that balances earthy flavors with just the right amount of spice. It is ideal for vegetarians and loved by everyone.
Beef Chettinad
For those who love bold and fiery flavors, Beef Chettinad is a must. Hailing from South India, this dish is made using a unique blend of roasted spices, black pepper, curry leaves, and coconut. At Black Cumin, the beef is tender, flavourful, and cooked to perfection. It’s served in a thick, spicy gravy that pairs wonderfully with Malabar paratha or plain basmati rice. This dish is a crowd favourite among spice lovers.
King Prawn Biryani
Last but not least, the King Prawn Biryani is an absolute showstopper. Fragrant basmati rice is layered with succulent king prawns and aromatic spices, then sealed and slow-cooked to absorb all the flavours. Served with a side of raita, this dish strikes the perfect balance between spice, texture, and aroma. Every bite feels like a celebration.
