Wanted a quick and easy dinner the other day after a fairly big lunch. A friend and I opted to get some takeaway at Jag's Indian nearby so we put down an order online and picked it up at 6.30pm. At that point, the restaurant was surprisingly empty, but the kitchen was still very busy, probably a lot of people order take away rather than dine in.
It was a quick ride home and we had two curries, a garlic naan and some rice to share.
Although it's not much to look at, this was the sour lime curry cooked with beef. It was quite tangy and mild wasn't very spicy at all. It was quite savoury with a few bites of beef in the container. The bulk was of course the curry, which went well with the rice and naan.
This was the butter curry with lamb. It also only had a few bites of lamb but a generous amount of sauce. Compared to the sour lime curry, this one was very sweet but also not spicy at all. I don't prefer curry that's overly sweet, so I prefer the taste of sour lime more. The texture was a lot more smooth in this dish also.
The rice was generous in portion and it was balsmati, not our usual medium grain. It tended not to stick together like the one's I'm used to but were still good with the curry sauce.
The garlic naan fared well on the drive home, it was still warm and not too steamed when we opened it. For the price, the serving was generous and it had a very strong garlic taste to it which I loved. It was chewy and flaky at the same time and mopped up the sauces well.
