Friday Night Takeaway

Cooking from the South West Coast of India

Cooking recipes from homes in the south west coast of India in Southwest France, 33220 Saint-Avit-Saint-Nazaire. Traditional recipes; silky, hot, coconut curries from Kerala, Vindaloos from Goa, fish from the Konkan coast, eclectic cooking from the melting pot of Bombay (aka Mumbai), and classical vegetarian Gujarati cuisine.

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.

The Original Chicken Korma by Friday Night Takeaway.

Not the overly sweet, fluorescent, restaurant version.
Not a sauce hiding anonymous ingredients.

But a real korma — the way it was intended.

There is such a variety of Kormas within regions of India; each using their unique techniques of cooking and ingredients that are synonymous with local communities. One of my favourites is the Hyderabadi chicken korma, a family recipe given to my Grandmother by her mother- in- law.

Korma is about balance, elegance and gentle warmth. It is built on toasted nuts, fragrant spices and patience. It is not meant to be mild, and it is not meant to be sugary. It is meant to be comforting, aromatic, punchy and deeply satisfying. Traditionally cooked on the bone

"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…."
