Lamb Curry Buns… Street Food at Home!

Street food has become all the rage here in Barcelona… Where isn’t it..? It’s trendy and fun and easy food… served from colourful, animated trucks at various events  especially held for these mother vehicles… it’s so much fun and just makes for a great day out!

But to me, street food means INDIA….completely! I mean, I have immense love for the street food vendors back home… always working away at such speed, dishing out plate after plate, non stop, nevermind the heat or rain… and everytime, each dish will pack a punch of flavour… there’s really nothing like it… Whether it’s a “frankie”… a chapati rolled and stuffed with chicken or paneer, bhelpuri, pav bhaji…mashed up tangy spicy veggies served on sweet bread rolls… When in India, DO street food… that is, if you have a strong, iron clad stomach… it is not for the faint hearted or faint tummy in this case… but one has to at least go and observe the goings on on the bustling streets… it’s a world on its own!

Lamb curry in all its glory!

Now back home, we have an extremely popular, typical street food dish: Kheema Pav… which basically is lamb kheema:https://anjalinachugani.com/lamb-kheema-curry/ , in a sweet, soft bread bun.. so it’s kind of like a hamburger in terms of reference… but the kheema is loose not packed into a pattie… and it’s garnished with loads of onions and coriander… perfectly sloppy and spicy … just the right kind of street food…

I have done a slightly different take on this… just because I happened to be making my mum’s awesome lamb curry… but I was a little bored thinking about white rice or just plain chapatis… ( the things we think about….)….So I thought, ok, why not try it in buns..?

I used these ready made soft buns... ideally the indian "pav" is what we need for this, but you can use anything you like

Simple stuff… but SO SO delish… And I think it’s great for a summer party… just pile up the buns and the extras… onion rings, coriander, lettuce, cucumber.. choices of pickles… have the curry all ready and warm and let everyone help themselves… less work for you, more fun for them! win win!!
