Spice Level: Mild

Customer Favorite

Saffron Malai Tikka represents the milder, more refined side of tandoori cooking at Tandoor House Restaurant & Banquet Hall. Unlike the vibrant red tandoori dishes, this preparation highlights the subtle, luxurious flavor of saffron and the richness of cream. It's a dish fit for royalty, inspired by the Mughlai cuisine of North India.

The marinade is what makes this dish special – premium saffron strands are steeped in warm milk to release their golden color and delicate aroma, then mixed with thick yogurt, cream, cashew paste, and mild aromatic spices. The chicken absorbs these flavors for hours before being cooked in the tandoor, resulting in pieces that are incredibly tender with a subtle, sophisticated taste. Known for its melt-in-your-mouth texture and gentle spicing, it's perfect for those who prefer milder flavors.

"What a great restaurant! The butter chicken here is phenomenal - creamy, perfectly spiced, and the chicken is so tender. We were not disappointed! Indo-Asian fusion at its best."
