Recently arrived at Sainsburys and presumably elsewhere, the new Mumbai Spice range from Gulam Noon is going to delight the Indian food afficionado. The promotional prices were attractive but I had decided in two mouthfuls that I would willingly have paid the full price (£11.99 for 'Banquet for Two').
As indicated we bought a meal which contained two excellent chicken dishes, a superb vegetable curry, plenty of rice and a naan. There is a wide range of individual dishes all in subtle but eye-catching packaging. We also bought Chowpatty Aloo Tikki which come with accompaniments to make an exceptionally tasty snack. My only criticism of these was that they were fiddly to put together - which did not greatly bother me in a household where Greg does almost all food preparation with patience and skill - but the flavour alone was worth his effort. The main dishes exuded quality with only the naan perhaps letting down the collation slightly with a lack of flavour. The quantities are enormous and I felt that parents eating with a single child could have fed the third person with no-one missing out.
Go to www.mumbai-spice.com to see more for yourself but then buy some at your next shop. You will not be disappointed.
We tried the Mumbai Spice meal for two on Tuesday. As there were four of us and only one two person meal available we also bought the Sainsbury's taste the difference meal for two. To be honest we couldn't tell the difference between each meal but the rice was nicer in the Mumbai spice meal.
