Nowadays, restaurant and cafe growth is so rapid here in Kolkata that if you go to a place after about 3 months you are bound to see a new restaurant or cafe there!

Most of us like North Indian Cuisine, especially because of the richness and spicy preparations. On the same line, there are a few speciality restaurants focusing on individual territories as “North India” has many places!

We were recently invited to try out the offerings of one of the renowned in Kolkata: Peerless Inn for their Punjabi Food Festival at Oceanic. So, as the name suggests these guys focus on Punjabi Cuisine and the way they present their dishes are impressive (their taste is even more!) I had a chance to meet with Mr. Jimmy Tangree, Head at 91.9 Friends FM. We used to grow up with Love Songs played by him at Red Fm station in every Friday via “DIL SE WITH JIMMY”. Such a lovely down to earth person. He was just surprised when I asked him for an Autograph. “Me?” Eventually we ended up with a Selfie. He actually came there to cover the Punjabi Food Festival launch.

Paneer Tikka – Paneer tikka has been a mainstay in the rich North Indian cuisine since ages and is a perfect example of a luscious yet healthy dish. House made paneer grilled with fresh exotic spices.

Chicken Tikka – A traditional and very popular Indian Chicken dish which is bursting full of flavor & colour. The word ‘Tikka” means bits, pieces or chunks. Chicken chunks are marinated in special spices & yoghurt and grilled on skewers till it is brown & tender.

Main Course :

Basmati Rice – A simple pot of Basmati rice can defeat even the most experienced cooks, especially when it comes to getting it right. 

Ragda Chana Dal –  I was not a big fan of chana dal during my childhood days and would try to avoid all the possible way but now it’s just opposite I like it much now to my delight. That’s a perfect looking dal don’t think the dal is not mashed, it’s not suppose to be.  Perfect to start with rice.

Vegetable Jhalfreezi – This Jalfrezi is a spicy smoky vegetable preparation with crunchy veggies, tangy cumin spiced tomatoes. A well prepared Jalfrezi  without having any creamy curry.

Malai Kofta – A delicious and rich main dish for any special occasion.  Kofta or Veggie balls are made from shredded paneer that’s been seasoned with fennel, coriander and red pepper flakes for a little kick. A nutty curry sauce of onion, garlic, ginger, cashews, tomato and green chilies complement the savory paneer dumplings in this healthy spin on an Indian classic.

Aloo Barain Curry  –

Gobi Matar –  This curry is traditionally a North Indian sabji. It is a very simple vegetable  dish that you can have with roti or rice. This dish is very light in the food and also gives a feeling of stomach fill up. This is so simple yet delicious dish.

Sarsho Da Saag – Sarson da saag is the favorite dish of winters. This is another gem of a Punjabi dish. Rich in flavor, nutrients and color, reflecting the culture of the region. Green, glorious, gratifying dish. It tastes really nice with Makai Di Roti.  The evergreen vegan combination.

Makai Di Roti – Makki ki Roti is a classic Punjabi corn meal flat bread that is spiced with green chillies and ginger. Famous Punjabi dish needs no introduction. Gosht Nawabi – Mutton sauteed with onions, tomatoes, cooked in creamy gravy. A delicious spicy dish and rich in appearance. Here Mutton is thoroughly cooked and seasoned with Indian spices. I was really ready to give me a royal treat with this mouth watering preparation. The pieces were succulent and tender and it melted in mouth. 

Kukran Shaan-e-Punjab – This dish is a balle balle Punjabi dish. It is yummy and delicious. Chicken is sauteed in onion tomato masala and flavored with aromatic spices and that is what makes this dish is so delicious. The taste is overwhelming and the taste is unforgettable.

Bhutta Ka Pulao – This pulao is loaded with yummy sweet corn kernels, and is undoubtedly a favourite with young and old alike. I liked it very much.  With spices, Basamati rice and beautiful corn kernels, really packs a punch to complete a meal. 

Salan –  Phool Gobi Aur Mirchon Ka Salan is prepared with Cauliflower, Green Chilies and Tamarind Pulp. A vegan dish with warming taste.

Chicken Tawa Pulao – Chicken Tawa pulao is a traditional and classic punjabi dish. It’s a pleasant rice based delicacy which has its own unique and distinctive flavors. Normally the Punjabi dishes are spicy and flavorful. This dish is popularly known as the Kodi pulao which means chicken pulao.  I just loved the flavor ! This is delicious!

Mango Lassi – Mango, the King of Fruits has many followers world over. Punjab is no different.
