At Little India, we believe in the magic that unfolds with every flavorful bite. Our menu boasts a variety of Indian dishes, each rich with tradition and bursting with unique spices. Today, we want to delve into a beloved specialty: the Bhuna.
The Bhuna is a dish that originates from North India, known for its comforting slow-cooked curries. The word “bhuna” itself translates to “stir-fried” or “roasted,” hinting at the culinary technique that imbues this dish with its characteristic depth of flavor.
The Art of the Bhuna
The magic of a Bhuna lies in its simplicity. At its core, it features succulent pieces of meat or vegetables simmered in a rich gravy of onions, tomatoes, peppers, and a symphony of aromatic spices. The beauty lies in the masterful blending of these elements, creating a tapestry of flavors that is both comforting and complex.
At Little India, we offer a variety of Bhuna options to tantalize your taste buds. Our classic Bhuna dishes include:
Chicken Bhuna: Tender chicken pieces bathed in a flavorful gravy.

Fish Bhuna: A lighter option perfect for seafood lovers.
