As the holiday season approaches, Singaporeans are once again preparing for a Christmas feast to remember.
This year, Bhoomi, the latest restaurant by celebrated Michelin-starred chef Milind Sovani, invites diners to experience a fusion of traditional and innovative holiday flavors with two special offerings: the original Tandoori Turkey and a special Christmas a la carte menu.
Chef Milind’s reinvention of the Christmas turkey, along with his festive creations, promises to elevate your holiday dining to new heights.
The Story Behind the Iconic Tandoori Turkey
In 2008, Chef Milind Sovani created what would become one of the most unique twists on a Christmas classic: the Tandoori Turkey.
Combining the traditional, roast turkey with the bold, smoky flavors of Indian tandoori cooking, this innovative dish became an instant hit in Singapore.
Launched in 2009, the Tandoori Turkey quickly gained popularity, becoming a favorite among those looking for something different for their Christmas celebrations.
Over the years, Chef Milind’s recipe has been adapted by numerous Indian restaurants, but none could quite capture the authenticity of the original creation.
Now, Chef Milind is bringing the original Tandoori Turkey back to Singapore at Bhoomi, his latest restaurant.
This rare opportunity to taste the dish as it was first envisioned will excite food lovers, especially as each turkey is accompanied by a special card detailing the secret recipe.
Bhoomi’s Christmas Offerings: A Modern Twist on Festive Dining
For Christmas 2024, Bhoomi is offering two distinctive Tandoori Turkey options, each designed to cater to a variety of tastes while honoring the spirit of the season.
- Original Tandoori Turkey with Manuka Honey Makhni Sauce
(S$148+, 6-8kg, serves 8-10 guests)
This classic version is marinated in a rich mix of Indian spices and cooked to perfection in the tandoor, then served with a decadent Manuka honey makhni sauce. The sweetness of the honey beautifully balances the heat of the spices, creating a harmonious and unforgettable flavor. - Stuffed Whole Tandoori Turkey with Lucknavi Quail Egg Biryani and Turkey Salan Curry
(S$175+, 6-8kg, serves 8-10 guests)
Chef Milind’s creative new take on the Tandoori Turkey is a fusion of rich Indian flavors. Stuffed with Lucknavi biryani and delicate quail eggs, and accompanied by a tangy turkey salan curry, this dish offers a unique culinary experience that will leave your taste buds dancing.
These delicious turkeys are available for takeaway from 14 to 29 December 2024. Be sure to place your order at least 3 days in advance to ensure you can savor these festive delights.
With the turkeys available for pickup during restaurant hours from 12 PM to 6:30 PM, you can easily bring a show-stopping dish to your Christmas gathering.
Bhoomi’s Special Christmas A La Carte Menu
In addition to the Tandoori Turkey, Chef Milind has crafted a Christmas-themed a la carte menu that showcases a perfect blend of Indian flavors and classic Christmas ingredients.
Inspired by festive spices and seasonal produce, these dishes promise a unique take on holiday favorites.
Some of the highlights from the Christmas menu include:
- Malai Turkey Tikka (S$32++): Succulent turkey breast marinated in a rich blend of spices and cream, offering a tender and flavorful appetizer.
- Meva Mawa Ki Seekh (S$22++): A vegetarian kebab of paneer, dry fruits, and mawa, beautifully spiced and served as a sweet-spicy treat.
