10 top curries in Dubai
3 Comments 19 October 2011
Chillies
Mirch Baingan Ka Salan at Qureshi’s Kebab & Kurry
Made from peanut and green chilli, the mirch ka salan should be hot – and Qureshi’s offering doesn’t disappoint. Hailing from Hyderabad, the curry is not to everyone’s taste, but if you can handle heat, this is as bold as it gets.
Taste test: Alongside the scary-looking chillies, baby eggplant also features here, enhanced by a deliciously flavourful medley of spices, peanuts and seeds. The curry only gets fiery hot if you choose to bite into the chillies. Go on – we dare you.
Eat it with: Plain rice or naan to offset the spice.
Curry Dhs39, naan Dhs8. The Country Club Hotel, Bur Dubai (04 398 8840)
If you like this, you’ll like: The mirch ka salan at Mezbaan in Karama (04 351 7863) is one you’re never likely to forget. If you’re just after a taste, have it as a side with your biryani from Biryani Express (800 247 9264, www.biryaniexpress.ae).

Love the list. My only question is, why are you showing a picture of the crab curry at Paragon if you're talking about the fish mango curry?

A very useful article here Time Out, and more so because I run the Dubai Curry Club: a group for expats to meet new people and share great moments over Britain's favourite dish! Please feel free to subscribe at http://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/218151674885408 and http://www.meetup.com/Dubai-Curry-Club and I look forward to meeting more new people at the next event, with suggestions always welcome as to venues.
Best wishes,

This is the best British curry house in Dubai in our opinion. The food is excellent and the service is great. We have been using these guys since they have opened and they have got better and so much busier now. If you haven't tried them they deliver to a lot of out of town places. Try the Nantera if you are into spicy food. I trust you will be hooked!!!
