✓ We are excited to let you know that we have recently "discovered" a great restaurant in the heart of Birmingham.
As you probably know by now we love Desi places like this; in this video we point our camera in the direction of the Curries section of the kitchen in which the Head Chef gives us a insight into how he quickly cooks up his delicious dishes to a packed and very busy restaurant.
Notice how the chef is so calm and keeps his cool under such a fast paced environment.
Also in the background you can see the other colleagues working their magic such as the tandoori oven master making naan breads and the Indo-Chinese Chef's wok stir fry action.
Some of the curry dishes and items being cooked are were: * "Maharani Thali" (Veg Platter, Poppadum, Paneer Makhni, Paneer Jalfrezi, Mix Veg, Veg Rice, Dal Makhni, Tandoori Naan Bread). * Chilli Paneer * Malai Kofta * Tandoori Soya Chicken
Note that; in Indian restaurants dishes are cooked on a very high heat which delivers a slight smokiness to the cooked food and gives that distinctive restaurant flavour, taste and character to a dish which you simply cannot recreate at home.
The guys were very busy at most times of my visit and we didn't feel it appropriate or right to interrupt to ask what dishes were being cooked up; but we briefly got a chance to ask the chef (towards the end of the video) what some of the spices, sauces and gravy recipe ingredients being used were.
Shambhala Village Restaurant is now confirmed as one of our favourite restaurants whenever my family and I ever visit Birmingham (aka Bham) because we found that the food did not fail to deliver on the taste factor and the portion size of the food served up is very generous they serve up restaurant quality food at Indian Street Food prices.
A special thank you to all the Shambhala team who welcomed us and graciously allowed us a privileged glimpse into their kitchen to do the videoing.
Shambhala Village Pure Vegetarian Restaurant is located at: 85 to 87 Soho Road, Birmingham, B21 9SP
If you have any questions such as regarding their opening times you can call them on: 0121 551 3053 or you can message them via their Facebook page: @ShambhalaVillage
