• Chicken Balti
• Razala Lamb

Vegetarian Dishes of the Month

Don’t worry – if you don’t eat meat we haven’t forgotten you. At Edinburgh’s Maharajahs Indian Restaurant we are very proud of all of our dishes – and here are two great vegetarian dishes that any meat eater would be delighted by. For some reason – vegetarian dishes just seem to go perfectly with bread, be it naan, some chapatis or a lovely roti – just don’t get the keema naan/paratha!!

• Bombay Chana Massallam
• Sabzi Panir Jalfrezie

It’s not often you consider a curry to be overly healthy – but here is one that combines the delight of panir – an Indian cheese similar to cottage cheese, steamed vegetables and then flavoured with chilli, ginger and coriander.  Fresh, light and a delight.

Are you a non-meat eater/vegetarian, do you just fancy a break from eating meat for an evening or do you just want to try something different? Here are three dishes we’d recommend you try.

Panir Massallam

Panir is a classic ingredient in real Indian food – for the uninitiated – it’s similar to Cottage Cheese. This is a mildly spiced dish with fresh herbs and spices complementing the freshness of the Panir.

Sag Aloo Delight

Sag Aloo is a renowned classic accompany to any Indian meal – and available at almost all Indian restaurants across the country. Our Sag Aloo delight augments this classic dish with the addition of coriander – one of the great curry ingredients, and mustard seed to create quite a spicy dish.

Sabzi Panir Jalfrezie

You should know what Panir cheese is from description of the mild curry above. The Sabzi Panir Jalfrezie is a spicier dish –with fresh coriander, chilli and ginger adding some heat to the coolness of the Panir.
