We had eaten once from Mango Tree years ago. It's a little farther out than where we normally venture to but since we're all ordering in these days, I thought it would be nice to revisit them
I noticed a Erachi ishtu on the menu which immediately brought to mind something very similar I had once at Swaadhisht. Didn't regret it. Nice creamy coconut broth with spices and tender onions and a bit of heat. Those sliced bits of green chilli in them added a great aroma. Mutton in the broth was tender as well. I think the one from Swaadhisht was more peppery.
I enjoyed the murg makhani - seemed like more than I did the last time. My thoughts of it might have changed a little. I enjoyed the balance of the cream and tang. I wonder if the recipe has changed from that time. It was too bad that I had too little naan or rice to finish up all the gravy.
I didn't remember it but apparently I had ordered their mango mapas previously as well. Still liked the tangy creamy flavours of this green mango curry.
Their lemon basmati rice. There was some nutty aroma - maybe from the spices and lentils. Sadly, not not detecting any lemon in there.
I wanted to get another opinion on the mango naan that Mango Tree after all this time. It was tastier than what I recalled from the last time. The fragrance from the mango along with some butteriness wafted out as soon as I opened the foil wrap. Also unlike the previous time, I tasted mango. I'm not sure what dip it would be suitable for since every gravy option would be overpowering the mango flavour on these naan.
