## About From the Tandoor: Smoky & Dry Delights

Forget electric grills and dry meat. I use a traditional clay tandoor and live charcoal for my Barra and Peshawari tikkas. Because I use a double-marination process with raw papaya paste as a tenderizer, the meat does not just cook, it softens while absorbing that deep, smoky aroma that only real charcoal can give.

### The Art of the Tandoor

There is a difference between grilling and proper tandoori cooking. In my kitchen, we do not take shortcuts. Every piece of meat, whether it is mutton for a Raan or chicken for a tikka, goes through a strict two-stage process. First, it is treated with raw papaya paste to ensure the fiber breaks down naturally, making it melt-in-the-mouth soft. Then, it is marinated in hung curd and our signature spice blends before hitting the live coal fire.

### Barra vs. Peshawari: Know Your Style

Not all tandoori dishes are the same. When you order from this menu, you are choosing between two distinct experiences:

*   **Barra Tandoori:** This is for those who love the heat. It is a dry, spicy red masala prep with charred, crispy edges that go perfectly with mint chutney and onions.
*   **Peshawari & Malai:** This is the royal, creamy side of our menu. We toss the hot, charred pieces in a luxurious yellow or white sauce made from cashews, cream, and mild spices. It is rich, indulgent, and meant to be savored slowly.

### Your Qurbani, Our Zaika

I know that Eid is a big deal in every home. If you want to enjoy the festivities without sweating over a hot stove, bring your Qurbani meat to my outlets in Kurla, Mahim, or Jogeshwari. I will handle the marination and the tandoor work. You just pick up the feast in the evening, ready for your family mehfil. It is the perfect way to turn raw meat into a legendary Mughlai spread without the kitchen stress.
