MONSOON KITCHENS INTRODUCES FOUR, NEW VEGETARIAN PRODUCTS

August 14, 2008:  Monsoon Kitchens expanded its line of convenient, ready to serve Indian foods today.  It introduced two new vegetarian entrees, one marinade and one chutney.  The new entrees are particularly exciting as they are available in a more convenient, 2 x 5 lb package, an ideal size for customers with limited frozen storage space. 

Specifically:

            Pao Bhaji
            Pao Bhaji is India’s street food.  It is popular in most metropolitan areas in India, particularly in Mumbai.  A serving of pao bhaji consists of the bhaji (a potato based curry) and the pao (often a hamburger roll) sauteed and garnished with coriander and slices of onions.  Just add your own roll or bun to Monsoon Kitchens’ Pao Bhaji; the result is a convenient, tasty, vegetarian sandwich.

            Tarka Dal
            Monsoon Kitchens’ Tarka Dal is a delightful, yellow lentil dish with fragrant spices and a wonderfully soft mouth feel.  It is an ideal vegan entrée and can be served over rice, with naan or by itself. 

            Malai Tikka Marinade
            Monsoon Kitchens’ Malai Tikka Marinade is a blend of yogurt, cheddar cheese and spices that imparts a unique flavor to beef, lamb or chicken.  Not only is this marinade tasty, its signature white appearance adds a recognizable look to marinated dishes, a look that customers will seek out.    

            Cilantro Coconut Chutney
            Cilantro Coconut Chutney, like all chutneys, is best savored in small portions, adding flavor to or accenting a particular item.  Cilantro Coconut Chutney is the choice for dipping our Monsoon Kitchens’ vegetarian and chicken samosas.  It’s a perfect alternative to our sweet Tamarind Chutney.

Like all Monsoon Kitchens’ products, these new additions are made from only the finest, domestically sourced ingredients.  They contain no trans fats and no artificial ingredients.
