Dishes to know on this menu

Tandoori: Cooked in a tandoor, a deep, charcoal- or gas-fired clay oven that reaches very high heat. Tandoori chicken is bone-in pieces marinated in yogurt, lemon, ginger-garlic and spices (the red color is mostly Kashmiri chili or food coloring), skewered and roasted until charred. Naan is slapped onto the same oven's walls. On this menu as: Bar Bites and Tandoor · Tandoori Platter · Tandoori Lamb Chops.
Biryani: A layered rice dish of spiced meat, seafood or vegetables, cooked slowly so the rice takes on the flavors of the meat and its marinade. It likely developed in the Mughal court kitchens from Persian pilau, and is now one of the most popular dishes in South Asia, with regional styles such as Hyderabadi. Pulao is the plainer, unlayered cousin. On this menu as: Mains, Biryani and Breads · Goat Dum Biryani.
Saag & palak: A dish of cooked leafy greens such as mustard greens or spinach, with spices and sometimes other ingredients. Sarson ka saag (mustard greens) eaten with makki ki roti, a maize flatbread, is the best-known Punjabi version, and saag gosht pairs the greens with mutton. On this menu as: Garden Saag.
Tikka: Boneless cubes marinated and grilled on skewers in the tandoor. Chicken tikka is the yogurt-and-spice version; malai tikka is marinated in cream and cheese for a mild, silky result; hariyali is a green marinade of mint, cilantro and spinach; paneer tikka is the vegetarian standard, often with peppers and onion on the skewer. On this menu as: Paneer Tikka.
Chops & lamb chops: Rib chops marinated in yogurt, ginger-garlic and spices and grilled in the tandoor until the edges char. Often the most expensive item in the grill section and a house showpiece at Pakistani and Punjabi restaurants. On this menu as: Tandoori Lamb Chops.
Samosa: A triangular pastry filled with spiced potato and peas (or minced meat), deep-fried until blistered and crisp, served with tamarind and mint chutneys. Samosa chaat smashes one under chickpeas, yogurt, chutneys and sev. On this menu as: Samosa.
