$8.95 AUDjhalfrezi
Jhalfrezi is an Indian equivalent of a Chinese stir fry and was created during the British Raj as a way of using left-over meat. Jhal in Bengali means “spicy food. The chicken in this dish can be substituted with leftover Christmas ham / fresh fish / cubed paneer / raw prawns.
This is our most versatile non-veg spice. We use it in different ways - roasting, grilling, stir frying and even in non-Indian cuisines as you can see in the image below. All you need is a couple of teaspoons to jazz up a meal.
vegetarian version
Use Paneer instead of chicken. Boil paneer cubes for 5 minutes, rest for 5 minutes. Drain and then stir-fry with tomatoes and peppers as in the recipe.
