Potato Thosai Sakunthala

Yum yum yum. We never fail to go to Sakunthala whenever we go to Little India. This time round we ordered a potato thosai. Thosai bread with potato as a filling. 3 sauces (2 curry, 1 yogurt based) on the side. Super yummy. 

Super carbfilled too but at least it doesn't taste as oily as the other dishes that we usually order. I need my Paper Thosai fix soon!

Palek Paneer

One of my favourite indian dishes is the Palak Paneer. Spinach puree with deep fried cheese. Goes really well with naan and basmati rice. Fell in love with this dish when I first tried it in the US. We used to go to this indian buffet place at the suburbs for lunch and I would indulge myself in this dish. 

Ever since I got back, I would always order this dish at the Indian eateries that offered it. I think it's north indian cuisine. Love it love it. And now, I managed to find the spice mix from little india's Mustafa Centre. I hope I can recreate the taste that I have always loved straight from my kitchen :)

Mixed fish platter from Ameen Makan House

Came back to Ameen makan house for supper today and decided to try their mixed fish platter ($15 for small in the picture above). I've been raving about their mixed chicken platter previously and have always wanted to try out the fish one. The fish platter takes about 20 minutes to grill, so do give them a call before you reach to preorder first if you do not want to wait that long. 

That being said, my friends and I feel that the 20 minutes wait is well worth it. Fish was fragrant and succulent with all their juices intact. The marinade is the same as the chicken platter and oddly enough, all of us preferred the green coloured fish. There's something about it that draws us to it. This is an amazing dish and we will definitely come back for more. According to my fat conscious friend, he mentioned that the fish is actually pretty low fat and healthy so he recommends it to people who are on a diet to have this flavourful dish the next time they come. 

Paper Thosai from Sakunthala

Brought a friend to Little India for some late night Mustafa shopping and we went over to Sakunthala for dinner. Ordered paper thosai (above), prata, tandoori chicken and potato thosai. Yum yum. Though we preferred the Tandoori chicken at Ameen Makan Place, the food is relatively good. We spent about $37 for the food including a Mango smoothie. I was in love with the paper thosai. Carbs at 2am is a bad idea, but they tasted so lovely that I ignored my diet. I don't know what's wrong with me but I'm addicted to the thosai and gobbled most of it up. Prata was a-ok, could be better, but if you were to swing by this place, do try their thosais. Yum.

Tandoori Chicken (Green sauce was pretty good)

Tandoori chicken platter from Ameen Makan House @ NUS

If you're a big fan of Tandoori chicken, I would recommend you to try out the tandoori platter from the Ameen Makan House near the junction of Clementi Road and Pasir Panjang Road. We ordered the small size @ $10 and just loved it. The dish comes along with a mint sauce and a side of julienned onions and carrots. Order it alongside with plain/garlic/onion naan and I assure that you'll be in food heaven. Haha, maybe I exaggerated but it is really good comfort indian food at healthy prices. Chicken wasn't too oily and the meats were tender and not too fatty.

My favourite chicken is the green coloured one. I'm not sure what's in it, maybe a mint based seasoning? My dinner date and I both enjoyed the meal very much and can't wait to go back to try the rest of the stuff.
