TREACLE TAMARIND FRIES
I eat in Mowgli twice a day. I am forever in the kitchen looking at new permutations and combinations of what lies within to perk up my lunch. I found myself often going in to chat to the chefs, dipping the Fenugreek Kissed Fries into the sauce of the Tamarind Treacle Ribs. This is how this dish evolved, from my hungry childlike meddlings around the Mowgli kitchen. These fries are sweet, you don't need many, but there is something so wrong yet so right about
them. And I bet they are the only Treacle Tamarind Fries on the planet.
