Welcome to Mirchi Indian Cuisine
Mirchi with
its made to-order food prepared with fresh masalas, vegetables and
meat, with great ambience and casual atmosphere is one of the best
places to eat in Ashburn, Virginia.
Mirchi
(mir-chi meaning hot peppers) is a casual contemporary Indian fusion
restaurant, featuring traditional north, mughlai, south, Hyderabadi and
Indo-Chinese dishes. The Hyderabadi cuisine features key flavors of
coconut, tamarind, peanuts and sesame seeds. The key spice is chilli,
(Mirchi), which is used in abundance and is the reason for the one word
used to describe hyderabadi cuisine – " fiery!". Hyderabadi cuisine
draws its flavors from two rich legacies – the Deccan cuisine of Nizams
with its delectable biryanis (rice flavored with meat and vegetables),
haleem (pounded wheat and mutton dish) and kebabs, and spicy Andhra
style of food, laced with mustard, garlic and chillies and eaten with
doles of chutney and pickle. We cook and serve popular hyderabadi
dishes like hyderabadi biryani, mughlai dishes, chicken korma,
Double-ka-meetha , Gajar-ka-halwa etc.
The
Indo-Chinese cuisine is a blend of Chinese wok (Kadai) cooking and
traditional Indian spices, resulting in more flavorful and tastier
dishes. |
Fire in the Belly
-Washington Post
"Man, this is hot," my dining companion said, mopping his lip
with a napkin and then reaching for the bowl of fiery red chicken
chunks. "I think I'll have some more."
