Mahal Menu

Mahal is an Indian restaurant at 138 Edgware Road that has served the area since 1965. Its fully halal menu brings together street food, tandoori cooking, regional curries, biryani and vegetarian dishes in a family friendly dining room. Fresh herbs and aromatic spices shape food intended for both a light meal and a generous evening spread.

Starters include Punjabi samosa, samosa chaat, bhel puri, pani puri, onion bhaji and chilli paneer. Chicken with curry leaves, chicken winglets in tangy sauce and crisp prawns add meat and seafood choices. From the tandoor come chicken tikka, seekh kebab, lamb chops, king prawns and paneer, with a mixed grill providing a broad selection for sharing.

Delhi style butter chicken combines tomato, cashew, butter and cream in a mild sauce, while kadhai dishes offer a more robust blend of peppers and spices. Haandi chicken, mutton and fish are cooked in small batches in a hearty desi style. Hyderabadi biryani seals rice, spices and a choice of meat, fish, prawns or vegetables in the cooking pot to concentrate the aromas.

Vegetarian cooking includes yellow lentils with garlic and cumin, creamy black lentils, chickpeas, okra, potato with cauliflower and paneer with peas. Pulao rice, steamed rice, naan, garlic naan, Peshawari naan, papadum and raita complete the savoury meal. Chai, lassi and alcohol free mocktails support the restaurant’s no alcohol policy and provide refreshing contrasts to the spices.
