Grand Pavillion’s Guide on – The drinks that complement Indian food well

The Grand Pavillion’s awesome guide of what is to be drunk with Indian food to make sure its taste can be enhanced. According to the chefs of the Indian restaurant in Sydney, “There should be a description of some of the pointers which can help to decide which drink is to be ordered at that particular time.”

Pointers

For Deciding Which Category Of Drink To Be Ordered

  • For hotter food, always consider ordering the Lassi

The chefs of the Indian restaurant in Terrigal are of the view, “If you have ordered hot and spicy food, then make sure you are ordering something cold that goes with it. For example, Lassi or Thandai would go immensely nice with that.”

This could be considered as the main reason why either lassi or thandai is ordered with Naan-Kulcha or the Chhole Bhature.

  • Order Refreshing Drinks With Meat Dishes

When we are talking about the meat then we are talking about the dish which is full of spices and flavours. So for those dishes, it is quintessentially necessary that the refreshing drinks are to be ordered.

For example, Shikanji or Cider would be best. Many people love to enjoy meat with alcoholic products.

Common Favourite Drinks That Go With Indian Food

  • Small Beers

When we are dining on some kind of Indian food, with whom we want the drink to be immensely rich in flavours and support the digestion, then we should order the Beer. It is considered the most adventurous choice when it is considered to be consumed with Indian food.

We still don’t know!

We are not sure whether the taste of the beer goes with the crisps and the crunchy foods.

  • Cider

I know, you won’t consider cider with curry but you are advised to try it out. When we are eating something really hot and spicy, then we should never order hot beverages like tea and coffee. They will spoil the entire taste of the food. The hot and spicy foods compliment better when these are tried with the drinks that have some cooling effect in them.

Wines Are Best With Indian Food?

Have you ever seen a troupe of Indian males dining to eat Indian food? If yes, then you must have noticed, that each time the group, their food is never considered complete if they do not have wine or alcohol in the association.

  • Sauvignon blanc

If you are going to order some of the light dishes which include a great proportion of sauce in them, then do not forget to order Sauvignon blanc along with it. Make sure you are including all the following:

  • Green Chillies
  • Garlic
  • Ginger
  • Coriander

Final Comments!

There are some other drinks as well like whiskey, cocktails, red wine and many more. The taste of the Indian food always goes very well with the above-mentioned drinks. If any of our readers want to give any suggestions to us regarding the drinks that taste better with the particular dish, then please feel free to present your views to us. We shall try to incorporate the list of drinks in our upcoming blog.

The Grand Pavilion: Serving the delectable Indian food cooked in tandoor

If you are familiar with Indian food then you already know what we are talking about. But, if you are going to visit the Indian Restaurant Terrigal for the first time, then it might be tough for you to understand what exactly it is or how it is different from the normal method of Indian cooking.

What is tandoori cooking?

Many Australians who have visited our restaurant for the first time tried out the Indian food, seeing the menu they thought, ‘TANDOORI or TANDOOR’ Is a recipe. Understand that it is a method of cooking. This type of cooking includes marinating, be it something vegetarian or nonvegetarian.

The tandoor used for making the food is at a very high temperature and this is important to be careful while using it. It is right to say that this method of Indian cooking is nowhere to be seen around the globe.

For tandoor-based cooking, the marinate used is yogurt-based and the desired food items are coated into the same be it chicken, paneer, or any other thing. This way it helps everything to be together and you can taste that in every bite. Moreover, the added spices and herbs are added to make them taste even better. Some of the most commonly added Indian spices are:

  • Ginger (Adrak)
  • Garlic (Lahasun)
  • Coriander (Dhaniya)
  • Cayenne pepper (Laal Mirch)
  • Garam masala (Garam masala)
  • Turmeric (Haldi)
  • Saffron (Kesar)

At the Grand Pavilion we have different types of tandoori-style meals like tandoori chicken tikka, tandoori fish tikka, tandoori chicken, butter chicken, and much more. It’s enough to make your taste buds go crazy!

What is the working of the tandoor oven?

The major functionality of the tandoor is that it can lock in the heat which is vital for making the food item. As the heat does not escape which makes the food cooked perfectly and when it gets to your plate you can have the tandoor cooked style meal. The smoky flavor you get to taste in the meal is because of the tandoor flames. If you are going to host an outdoor party, then make sure to order it from ‘The Grand Pavilion’ menu. To consume the deliciousness in the best manner, make sure to try out this part of the cooking style from the Indian menu.

How do you cook in a tandoor oven?

With tandoori cooking, there are skewering marinated meats along with vegetables & this is the reason which makes it perfect. The skewers are placed in the tandoor for enough time so that the food is cooked with perfection. In addition, the oven-safe mitts are used to take out the food safely from there.

Tandoori Chicken – The flavoursome and the aromatic chicken delight

According to the chefs practising in the Indian restaurant in Terrigal, “Indian Cuisine is the most aromatic, luxurious, healthy and distinctively tasty food in the world. There are so many diverse dishes that people like to order each time they visit an Indian restaurant in Sydney. One of such dishes is the ‘Tandoori Chicken’. The influence of this dish on the taste buds of Indians is so much that even the vegetarian people are dying to taste it for once at least.”

What does the Tandoori Chicken taste like?

No better word other than ‘Heavenly’ can best describe the taste of the tandoori chicken. It is one of the most tender and juiciest varieties of chicken that makes the dish enlivened by marinating it in so many protein-providing ingredients. The ingredients used to marinate the chicken are specially harvested and are handpicked to make sure that the authenticity is not at all compromised.

What to do to obtain the succulently juicy chicken?

Two secret magical ingredients can help you cook succulent tasty tandoori chicken at home:

  • Greek Yogurt
  • Lemon Spiced Marinade

Which other ingredients must be put in the tandoori chicken?

The tandoori chicken will lack the awesome flavours which make it the favourite of all if the following ingredients are missed out:

  • Garam Masala
  • Cayenne pepper
  • Smoked Paprika
  • Ground coriander and Ginger
  • Garlic and Onion powder
  • Ground turmeric and Cumin
  • Chilli powder

Which other things are responsible for making the tandoori chicken as most authentic?

The way each chef marinates the chicken is different. No matter whether it is paneer, chicken, beef, pork or shrimps, there is a separate marinating method for each of them. Now, our readers might be thinking about why different marinating methods are used? It is because of the distinctive absorption capabilities of different meats. The right kid of the marinade is responsible for making you relish each bite at the end.

How is the marinated chicken cooked?

There are customarily so many pieces of equipment with the help of which the chicken can be cooked. To make sure the authentic taste is being experienced, it is important to make use of the tandoor. It is the kind of clay oven that is one of the traditional methods to cook chicken.

From where has the tandoori chicken originated?

The name of the dish is taken from the equipment in which it is usually cooked and that is tandoor about which we have mentioned above. Earlier the tandoors were only being used to cook the nans, Rotis and the other kind of flatbreads.

Which kind of spices are usually used in tandoori chicken?

On having a single bite of the chicken, we’ll realise how flavoursome this particular dish is. One of the main kinds of spice because of which this dish is incomplete is Garam Masala.

Did you know?

Garam Masala is the combination of the following kinds of herbs and spices:

  • Cumin
  • Coriander
  • Black Pepper
  • Cinnamon
  • Ground Cloves
  • Nutmeg
