5 IDEAL ALTERNATIVE CURRIES TO TRY NEXT TIME YOU GET A TAKEAWAY

Bored of your usual takeaway order? Forget your creamy Kormas and mild Masalas, the new curries on the block are taking the nation by storm, tantalising taste buds across the UK. From Chicken Chasni, with sweet and sour Chinese flavours, to a Ceylonese Korma in a creamy coconut sauce, these twists on the classic curry will add some extra spice to your Friday night takeaway.

According to hungryhouse.co.uk, the online food-ordering platform, almost half the nation end up ordering the same thing, so they are calling on Brits to step out of their comfort zone and give a new dish a go. Hungryhouse suggest trying these 5 ideal curries to get you hot under the collar next time you order a takeaway. 

If you like a Masala…

Try the Chicken Chasni – a similar creamy dish, which packs an extra punch with its unique sweet and sour taste, provided by the added tangy mango chutney.

If you like a Korma…

Opt for the Ceylonese Korma – a simple twist to the well-loved dish, prepared with a choice of cooked fruits in a mild creamy sauce and a touch of coconut.

If you like Matar…

Pick the Dhansak – a traditional Persian dish made with lentils and green vegetables with a hot, sweet and sour flavour.

If you like a Tikka…

Try out the Akbari Chicken – a rich curry taste, prepared in an exotic cashew sauce.

If you like a Vindaloo…

For the daring, the Kolhapuri – a spicy, hot and exotic dish prepared in a thick sauce often served with coconut gravy.
