About the dish
Chickpeas cooked down with spices until thick, then spooned over broken mathri, the flaky, crisp crackers that soften just enough under the curry. Plates like this are a morning street-breakfast in Agra, finished with chopped onion, a little carrot pickle and green chutney. Eaten fast, while the mathri still has some crunch.

Where it’s from
Agra wakes up to bedai and sabzi from the morning lanes, long before the crowds reach the Taj Mahal. Chaat and kulcha stalls fill the old market streets by midday and stay busy until dark.
Our dishes are a little spicy and spice levels cannot be customised — we cook them the way they are cooked at home. Our kitchen handles dairy, wheat, gram flour, peanuts and tree nuts. We do not offer vegan or gluten-free dishes, so guests with allergies dine at their own discretion — we are unable to take responsibility for allergic reactions. Everything is cooked in desi ghee or sunflower oil depending on the recipe.
Spiced as standard
We do not do takeout. This is food that stops being itself in a box — come and sit down.
