Tandoori Chicken - Jaipore Indian Restaurant, Newbridge.
On Saturday I spent my afternoon in St. Conleth's Park in Newbridge watching both Moorefield and Sarsfields setting up another county final showdown by beating Celbridge and Athy respectively. I didn't really have the time or energy to cook so Ali and I agreed that a takeaway from our favourite Indian restaurant was in order. I went in and ordered a medium Tikka Masala for Ali and was stopped before I could order myself. Adi recommended a special that they were trying out that evening: Tandoori Chicken. After his glowing recommendation I agreed and was delighted to hear a member of the kitchen staff come out two minutes later to say there's only one portion left. What a great sign!
The dish was delicious. Definitely my favourite Indian takeaway meal. It was quite simple but that allowed the spicing to shine through perfectly. The chicken was on the bone adding plenty of extra flavour while the subtle hint of cardamom drew me in immediately. I promptly rang Adi to let him know what I thought, I loved it. It's not always on the menu at Jaipore but if it is, order it!Labels: Indian, Jaipore, Newbridge, Pete's Perfect Portion, Tandoori
