The vibrant menu is fun and playful and boasts many old favourites such as samosas, prawn puri, onion bhajis and fish pakoras. There are also a few different starters that are the ideal way to begin your culinary adventure. Both the shai garlic kofta, tender and spicy meatballs cooked with shai masala, herbs and coated in a home-style sauce and the jai ho lamb chops cooked in special home-style spices and oven baked until tender are popular choices. Of course curry is always strongly featured on the menu of Indian restaurants in Nottingham, and Slumdog Indian Kitchen is no exception to this rule. Choose from chicken, chicken tikka, vegetables, lamb, prawn and king prawn and decide whether you want to go mild or whether you’re in the mood for a real punch of chilli heat. Curries such as the tika masala and korma are beautifully balanced and mild, while the temperature on vindaloo, madras, duplaza and rogen josh get turned up a notch. Brave diners can opt for the ultimate in spice with the Punjabi hot or the jaipuri, which contains plenty of fresh green chillies, garlic and ginger.
One of the real delights of this venue is the choice of street-style delicacies, which is not something available in many of the restaurants in Nottingham. The sabzi dhamaka is a selection of fresh vegetables with a mild to hot sauce and garnished with traditional ghram masala and coriander, while the keema aloo karahi features minced lamb cooked with potatoes and plenty of spices, onion and garlic. All the dishes are wonderfully aromatic and use many beautiful Indian spices to enhance the flavour.
