Spicy Tadka Indian - Basingstoke

The menu clearly marks gluten-free options, and they informed me that they could adapt most dishes to be gluten-free as well. However, I wasn't completely certain about the status of the fritters and their understanding of cross-contamination. In my experience, Indian cuisine is usually a relatively safe choice for those with celiac disease, as there are many naturally gluten-free options available. To be cautious, I decided to avoid the poppadoms and anything fried or in a broth. I ordered chicken jalfrezi with plain rice, and it was delicious! The sauce looked different from what I saw on other diners' plates—less saucy and more vegetable-based. Overall, I would definitely consider eating here again.

Unfortunately, I experienced some cross-contamination during my visit. Although the food was gluten-free, there was no attention given to preventing cross-contact.
