Description

One of the best Dal Makhani, in our opinion, can found in the Indian city of Amritsar. With so many people asking us to do a black or Kaali Dal, we decided to create our very own version of this tasty Dal Makhani – using black lentils, simmered for hours with ripe tomatoes, fresh ginger and dried fenugreek leaves.

Our barn, our recipes

Cooked in a barn above Silent Pool

This gravy starts the way it did in Mandira's family kitchen in Calcutta: whole spices, toasted and ground the same morning, cream stirred in slowly so it never splits.

We cook in small batches in a 400-year-old barn in the Surrey Hills, then blast-freeze every pot the day it's made. Cooked, then frozen. That order is the whole point.
