Vegetable Tikka Kebabs

/ Food & Drink

There is something utterly irresistible about the world’s most famous tikka style marinade from India’s Punjab region. One of the most popular dishes in our Mille Fleurs restaurant on a Meatless Monday is tasty vegetable tikka kebabs served on a bed of biryani rice with cooling raita. The strong influence of Indian cuisine upon Jamaica’s inspired and own fusion cookery can be seen in its love of spice, roti, colourful one pot vegetable dishes  and the adoption of rice for the island’s most famous side-dish of peas ‘n’ rice!  Food historians love eating out in Jamaica, exploring and uncovering  the very positive aspects of the island’s immigrants and history over the centuries.
