Who knew that a fruit could be so meaty in texture and savoury to taste? It worked perfectly in the aromatic, warmly spiced, saffron rice Biryani that was dotted with golden sultanas and slightly sour barberries. The surprising star of the show (particularly for my carnivore husband!) was the Jackfruit Biryani. And Dishoom’s signature House Black Daal was a satisfying cuddle in a bowl. The creamy, spongy paneer cubes of the Mattar Paneer provoked mouth filled murmurs of appreciation. The perfectly fried crispy chicken bites were succulent on the inside and coated with a sticky sweet and salty chilli sauce. The Chilli Chicken lived up to its name and packed a punch. Light, filo pastry samosas were packed to the very corners with tender vegetables and served with a rich and intensely tangy tamarind chutney. Our feast arrived in attractive eco-friendly packaging that was clearly labelled and smelt incredible. I deliberated and drooled over the menu of Small Plates, Ruby Murray, and Biryani and eagerly (over) ordered. So, I was seriously excited by the news that Dishoom had started delivering their renowned Bombay comfort food to Brighton homes. Not the made-for-British-tastes curries that leave an orange stain on fingers and napkins, but authentic Indian food.
