We are excited to announce a significant expansion of our culinary offerings at TINDLI! After receiving numerous requests from our valued customers, we're proud to introduce a carefully curated selection of premium non-vegetarian Indian dishes to our menu. While we remain deeply committed to our vegetarian roots and will continue to offer our award-winning vegetarian selection, we're now expanding to serve the complete spectrum of Indian cuisine at both our Peterborough and Croydon locations.

A Thoughtful Expansion of Our Culinary Vision

Our decision to introduce non-vegetarian options comes after months of careful consideration and customer feedback. We understand that many of our guests appreciate the diversity of Indian cuisine, which includes both vegetarian and non-vegetarian traditions. By expanding our menu, we aim to create a truly inclusive dining experience where everyone can find something to love, whether they prefer vegetarian, non-vegetarian, or a mix of both.

"Our commitment to quality remains unchanged. Every non-vegetarian dish is prepared with the same attention to detail, authentic spices, and cooking techniques that have made our vegetarian dishes so popular. We've spent months developing these recipes to ensure they meet the high standards our customers expect from TINDLI."

— Chef Karnavar, Founder of TINDLI

Premium Quality & Ethical Sourcing

At TINDLI, we believe that exceptional food begins with exceptional ingredients. Our non-vegetarian dishes feature only the highest quality meats sourced from trusted local suppliers who share our commitment to animal welfare and sustainable farming practices:

1

Free-Range Chicken

All our chicken dishes are prepared with free-range, corn-fed chicken from local farms. The birds are raised without antibiotics and have access to outdoor spaces, resulting in superior flavor and texture.

2

Grass-Fed Lamb

Our lamb is sourced from British farms practicing sustainable grazing. The grass-fed diet results in tender, flavorful meat that's perfect for traditional Indian slow-cooked curries.

3

Sustainable Seafood

Our seafood selections are chosen based on sustainability ratings and seasonal availability, ensuring we serve only the freshest, most responsibly sourced fish and prawns.

Signature Non-Vegetarian Dishes

Our new non-vegetarian menu features classic Indian dishes prepared with authentic techniques and premium ingredients. Each recipe has been carefully developed to showcase the rich, complex flavors that make Indian non-vegetarian cuisine so beloved worldwide:

Chicken Tikka Masala

Tender pieces of free-range chicken marinated in yogurt and spices, grilled to perfection, and served in a rich, creamy tomato-based sauce. This British-Indian classic is prepared with our unique blend of spices for a truly memorable version of this popular dish.

Lamb Rogan Josh

Succulent pieces of grass-fed lamb slow-cooked in a fragrant sauce of tomatoes, yogurt, ginger, garlic, and traditional Kashmiri spices. The slow cooking process ensures the lamb becomes incredibly tender while absorbing all the wonderful flavors of the sauce.

Goan Prawn Curry

Fresh, sustainably sourced prawns cooked in a vibrant Goan-style coconut curry with tamarind, spices, and fresh coconut. This coastal Indian specialty balances sweet, sour, and spicy flavors beautifully.

Butter Chicken

Our version of this classic features tender chicken pieces in a luxuriously smooth sauce made with butter, cream, tomatoes, and our secret blend of spices. Slightly sweet, mildly spiced, and utterly delicious.

Maintaining Our Vegetarian Excellence

It's important to emphasize that while we're expanding our menu, our commitment to vegetarian cuisine remains as strong as ever. Our original vegetarian dishes will continue to be prepared with the same care and attention, and our kitchen operations have been carefully designed to maintain the integrity of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian preparations:

  • Separate preparation areas and equipment for vegetarian and non-vegetarian cooking
  • Dedicated cooking utensils and pans for different types of dishes
  • Clear labeling and communication about dish ingredients
  • No compromise on the quality or variety of our vegetarian offerings
  • All vegetarian dishes remain completely meat-free and prepared separately

Our vegetarian customers can continue to enjoy their favorite dishes with complete confidence, knowing that our standards for vegetarian preparation remain uncompromised.

Family Dining Made Even Better

The addition of non-vegetarian options makes TINDLI an even better choice for family dining and group gatherings. Now, mixed groups can enjoy a complete Indian dining experience together, with options to suit every preference:

1

Mixed Thali Options

Our popular thali meals now offer the option to include both vegetarian and non-vegetarian selections, perfect for those who want to sample a bit of everything.

2

Sharing Platters

New sharing platters that combine our best vegetarian and non-vegetarian starters, making them perfect for groups with diverse dietary preferences.

3

Customizable Feasts

Create your perfect family feast by mixing and matching vegetarian and non-vegetarian main courses, all served with our delicious breads and rice.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Since introducing our non-vegetarian options, we've received wonderful feedback from both our existing customers and new visitors:

"As a long-time vegetarian customer, I was initially concerned about the menu expansion, but TINDLI has handled it perfectly. The vegetarian options are still amazing, and now I can bring my non-vegetarian friends and family who can enjoy equally delicious dishes. The kitchen separation gives me complete confidence."

— Priya S., Croydon

"The lamb rogan josh is absolutely incredible – the meat is so tender and the spices are perfectly balanced. It's clear that the same care goes into the non-vegetarian dishes as the vegetarian ones. This has become our new favorite Indian restaurant in Peterborough!"
