Dopiaza is an Indian dish, which usually consists of meat cooked with onions, then garnished with either raw or fried onions, translated it means two onions.
We have upped our onion game with this Dopiaza curry sauce and added extra depth with the use of caramelised onion.
What onions have we used in this Dopiaza Curry Sauce?
This curry sauce contains our cooked onions in canola oil, caramelised onions in canola oil and a pinch of crispy onions as a garnish.
Each onion offering their own texture, flavour and depth.
Onions within Indian Cuisine
Created by the fantastic The Hungry Guy, Steve has been working with the team to show off what our ingredients can really do. This month, he focused heavily on our ambient onions, showcasing their intense flavour and how easy they are to use within Indian cuisine.
Indian cuisine uses a lot of onion within recipes, primarily as a base, a flavour enhancer and as a garnish.
Cooking methods such as caramelising and sautéing can really take time and resources, both of which can be removed when using our pre-cooked range.
