YELLOW RICE AND BALL CURRY (KOFTA CURRY): A mainstay of Anglo-Indian cuisine, Yellow Rice and Ball Curry is an unbeatable pairing. The ‘balls’ in a ball curry are koftas made with chicken or beef mince, green chillies and onions while the yellow rice is a light, airy coconut rice. The creaminess of the rice balances out the spicy ball curry perfectly!

Pantheras are elongated sticks of beef mince wrapped in a delicate mix of egg and flour while Croquettes are densely-packed, tear-shaped beef chops.
