Fish and seafood star on the new menu at Ayla in Newcastle, which celebrates dishes from across the Indian subcontinent.
The contemporary Indian restaurant on Grey Street has added a number of seafood dishes to the menu, starring fresh produce sourced from Collingwood Seafood in North Shields. New dishes include Goan steamed mussels in a coconut-based marinade; Haldi chilli grilled seabass marinaded with chili and turmeric; and Chingri mango chat – king prawns with garlic, lemon and mango. The dishes appear alongside refreshed lamb and chicken dishes.
Co-owner Fahima Ahmed said: “We’re introducing new, authentic dishes which showcase the produce of the North Sea and even more of the diversity offered by food from the subcontinent.”
