Friday Night Takeaway

We are a husband-and-wife team, Imtiaz Hasan and Corinne Terrasson, leaving a hectic and fast-paced life in London to move with our 2-year-old daughter Mia in 2020, to this quiet part of France. The purchase and renovation of a farm house has given us the opportunity to work with food, Ayurveda and holistic practices and to provide ourselves and those who try our food an experience of home cooking which is far different to the restaurant Indian food here or in other parts of France

Trained in Hotel Management and Catering Technology in the first part of our careers, working with the Taj and Oberoi Group in India and then in London with The Taj Group at their iconic Indian restaurant Bombay Brasserie. Travelling working and living in India and cooking with home cooks, we are passionate about food from the South West coast of India.

Main Course & Side Dishes

Meat Main

Beef Madras -a recipe from a kitchen in Chennai (Madras)
15 € per person served with lemon rice
 
Beef simmered in an onion and tomato sauce , infused with freshly ground spices, garlic, and ginger. Slow cooked for a deep, warming heat and flavours of cumin, coriander, turmeric, and chilli. Finished with a touch of tangy tamarind and fresh coriander for a bold yet balanced curry — rich, aromatic, and comfortingly spicy – served with lemon rice

Vegetarian Main

Parangikkai Kara Kuzhambu–  
13 € served with lemon rice
 
Parangikkai (pumpkin) kara (spicy) Kuzhambu (stew) – bold, spicy, tangy South Indian pumpkin curry made with tamarind, red chillies, coriander, cumin and black pepper, garlic and shallots. Finished with mustard seeds and curry leaves and served with lemon rice
 

Side Dish

Lemon rice 
South Indian style- mustard seeds, channa and urad dal, curry leaves, fresh lemon, cashews and peanuts
 

Side Dish

Madrasi Dal
3.50 € per person
Slow-simmered lentils in a rich South Indian spiced sauce with tomato, garlic, ginger, and aromatic spices; cumin, coriander, turmeric, mustard seeds, and dried red chilies…..
using a rasam spice blend which is comforting, slightly tangy, gently smoky, and beautifully spiced rather than just “hot.”

Side Dish

Onion Samosa, Vengaya Samsa 3 € for 2 
the people of Coimbatore call these beauties “Onion Pupsu” while the rest of Tamil Nadu calls this a “samsa”. Onion Samsa / pupsu was a nostalgic snack sold in cinema theatres till the 90’s until the popcorn took over. Wonderful parcels of spiced onion and potatoes, so simple but these are bite sized divine mouthfuls. Hands down one of my favourite.
 
South Indian Fried Pappadums. – 3 € for two
Hand made with a lot of attention and care. Couldn’t have a menu without this crunchy, crispy addition!
 
Traditional Indian Griddled Flat Breads – 3.50 € for two
Wrap it, dunk it, mop it!

"Superb meal-I can’t believe the range of subtle flavours . The potato  Korma style/sauce  was my favourite-really tasty. The meal was very well balanced , with portion sizes just right.  A very talented chef, delicious food. Not normally a fan of biryani you have changed my view on it, Imtiaz!  Extras complemented well and the whole was very good value for money.
l look forward  to the next one…."
