It's turning into a good year for an Indian takeaway with a difference. The Vegetarian Rasoi has been crowned the 'People's Choice' winner in this year's Great Food Club Awards - months after one of the founders was honoured with a British Empire Medal.
The Vegetarian Rasoi, started as a 'side hustle' five years ago by Meena and Jatinder Hanspal but has since turned into a business. Run from their kitchen at home in West Bridgford, the husband and wife team cook delicious veggie food for collection and delivery each Friday.
Every week they prepare around 60-70 takeaways from an ever-changing menu. Recent dishes - all made from scratch - have included aloo dosa masala topped with chilli paneer, vegan naan with scrambled tofu, and vegetable biryani.
