What is Jalfrezi? The Sizzling Stir-Fried Curry
Jalfrezi is a unique and popular curry with Anglo-Indian roots. The name comes from a Bengali term that translates roughly to “hot-fry.” Unlike many slow-simmered curries, Jalfrezi is all about high-heat, stir-fry style cooking, which gives it a distinctly fresh and vibrant character.
The signature of any authentic Jalfrezi is its ingredients and texture:
- A Thick, Tangy Sauce: The base is a rich, reduced tomato gravy, spiced with a blend of classic Indian spices.
- Crisp, Chunky Vegetables: It always features a generous amount of chunky-cut bell peppers (capsicum) and onions, which are added late in the cooking process to keep them crisp and fresh.
- A Zesty, Fresh Heat: The primary source of spice in a Jalfrezi comes from fresh green chilies, providing a bright, zesty heat.
The Anmol Difference: A Commitment to Freshness
A great Jalfrezi is defined by the freshness of its ingredients. At Anmol, we honour this by preparing every Jalfrezi to order, ensuring the vibrant, sizzling experience this dish is famous for.
- Flash-Cooked Freshness: We don’t use a generic, pre-made curry base. Your Jalfrezi is cooked fresh in a hot pan (or karahi) when you order, ensuring the vegetables retain their delicious crunch and the flavours are bright and distinct.
- High-Quality Protein: We believe that no matter which protein you choose, it should be the best. We use tender boneless chicken, rich and flavourful lamb, or hearty beef pieces, all perfectly cooked to remain juicy and succulent.
- The Perfect Balance of Spice: Our chefs have perfected the balance between the tang of the tomatoes, the sweetness of the peppers, and the fresh heat of the green chilies, creating a sauce that is complex and incredibly satisfying.
How to Best Enjoy Your Jalfrezi
The thick sauce of a Jalfrezi is perfect for pairing with your favourite bread or rice.
- With Bread: Use a fluffy Naan or a simple Tandoori Roti to scoop up the rich gravy and vegetables.
- With Rice: A side of Basmati Rice is excellent for soaking up all the delicious flavours.
