How to Build a Balanced Meal: Naan, Qorma, and More
At Tunday Kababi Dubai, each dish is crafted to stand on its own. But when combined thoughtfully, our menu becomes more than a collection of flavours—it becomes a harmonious, balanced meal. Whether you’re dining solo or sharing with a group, there’s an art to choosing the right mix of kebabs, curries, breads, and sides to satisfy every craving.

Start with a Strong Foundation: Bread or Rice
Every satisfying meal begins with a sturdy base. At Tunday, you can choose between soft, flaky breads and fragrant, slow-cooked rice. Naan offers buttery chew, Lachha Paratha adds layers of crunch, while Sheermal provides sweet richness that pairs beautifully with spice-laden gravies.
Prefer rice? Our Chicken Biryani or Jeera Rice delivers both flavour and comfort. Each bite is designed to hold and elevate the richness of your chosen main.
Pick a Protein: Kebabs or Gravy Dishes
The soul of the meal lies in the protein. For a dry, grilled option, start with the Galawati or Seekh Kebab—both bursting with hand-ground masalas and smoke. If you’re craving something more indulgent, Chicken Qorma or Chicken Tikka Masala offers velvety gravies with slow-cooked depth.
Mixing one kebab with a curry provides variety and balance—smoke and sauce, richness and texture. The pairing of Roomali Roti with Galawati Kebab followed by Lachha Paratha and Qorma is a classic Tunday move.
Don’t Skip the Side Stars
A truly complete meal goes beyond mains. Add a Shami Kebab or Bun Galawati for contrast and bite-sized indulgence. Pickled onions, mint chutney, and salad act as fresh, tangy cleansers between bites.
These side components add crunch, freshness, and acidity—important elements that prevent the meal from feeling too heavy.
Balance Heat, Cream, and Tang
Awadhi cuisine is all about balance—not every dish is meant to be fiery. If you’re ordering a rich, creamy curry like Chicken Malai Tikka or Qorma, balance it with something zesty like our Chicken Tikka Roll or Seekh Kebab.
If you’re choosing spicy kebabs, pair them with Sheermal or Sweet Lassi to tone down the heat and round out the meal. The goal is contrast, not overload.
Round It Out with a Drink or Dessert
Finish your meal with something cool and classic. Sweet Lassi brings soothing richness, while Cold Coffee offers a refreshing end. For dessert, Sheer Khurma (when available) adds a soft, sweet conclusion to your savoury feast.
Every good meal deserves a thoughtful finish, and ours are designed to leave you satisfied—not stuffed.
