Burrah
About This Dish
Burrah is a classic lamb kebab that features succulent lamb chops, marinated in a mixture of yogurt, Kashmiri chili, and mild spices. The lamb is grilled to perfection, resulting in a crispy outer layer while the meat remains tender and juicy on the inside. The flavors of the marinade infuse the lamb, giving it a rich, smoky taste that pairs beautifully with naan or a fresh salad. This dish is a perfect example of Indian barbecue and a traditional tandoori recipe.
History & Tradition
Burrah kebab is believed to have been created during the Mughal era in North India. The name “Burrah” is derived from the Urdu word for large, reflecting the size of the lamb chops used. Traditionally cooked in the tandoor, the Burrah kebabs have a characteristic smoky flavor that is the result of being grilled over charcoal or in a clay oven. This dish represents the perfect balance between mild spices and tender lamb. It’s often paired with naan or served alongside a fresh mint chutney.
What Makes It Special
What makes Burrah Lamb Kebab special is the use of high-quality lamb that is marinated for hours, allowing the spices and yogurt to tenderize the meat and infuse it with rich flavors. The grilling process enhances the smokiness and creates a delicate char, making each bite irresistible. This kebab is a great option for anyone looking for authentic Indian kebabs and a taste of royal Mughlai cuisine.

Guess who’s getting spoiled silly at BKC Soho?
Mark your calendars because Jamai Shashti is crashing London for the very first time — and we’re throwing a feast like no other! It’s that one glorious Bengali tradition where the son-in-law gets treated like a king (and yes, everyone’s invited to join the fun). From smoky aam pora shorbot to crispy cutlets and devilled eggs, this is indulgence the BKC way. Expect big flavours, bigger portions, and a side of joyful chaos.
Think buttery kaju kismis pulao, melt-in-your-mouth dak bungalow mutton, mustardy fish paturi, and golden beguni straight from the heart of home kitchens. There’s mishti, there’s adda, and there’s absolutely no such thing as too much food. Come hungry, bring your crew, and prepare to be spoiled silly — no in-laws required.

A Musical Evening at BKC Soho – Thank You, Prithibi!
Yesterday was nothing short of magical at BKC Soho, as we had the honour of hosting the incredible Bengali alternative rock band Prithibi. Their presence lit up our space — with laughter, warmth, and conversations as soulful as their music.
It felt less like a visit, and more like a celebration of shared culture, flavour, and rhythm. Thank you, Prithibi, for bringing your artistry, heart, and energy to our table — it was an evening to remember!
আবার দেখা হবে, খাওয়া-দাওয়া আর গান নিয়ে!

Ambur Chicken Biryani – South India’s Fiery Signature Arrives at BKC!
From the spice-laden kitchens of the Nawabs of Arcot to the smoky streets of Tamil Nadu, Ambur Biryani is a bold southern legend. A military-born recipe turned roadside icon, it`s known for its no-frills intensity and unforgettable heat.
At BKC, we bring it alive with short-grain rice, seared chicken, and a vibrant chilli-and-mint masala slow-cooked in yoghurt. No saffron, no sweetness—just spice, soul, and that deep, Southern punch. This is biryani for the brave. Aromatic, peppery, and full of fire.

Yakhni Pulao — A dish that carries the land’s story, here for one last weekend!
In the snow-dusted stillness of Kashmir, where time slows and the aroma of saffron clings to the air, Yakhni Pulao was born. Rooted in centuries of tradition, this delicate dish uses a slow-simmered broth of bones and whole spices—yakhni—to infuse every grain of rice with soul. It’s not fiery or loud; it’s food that whispers, food that remembers.
As the beauty of Kashmir stands shadowed by sorrow, we offer this dish with reverence. Our thoughts are with the people of Kashmir, a land of beauty and sorrow, of resilience and grace. We honour their heritage through this dish — and invite you to taste, reflect, and remember. A tribute to its people, its poetry, its perseverance. Yakhni Pulao will be leaving our menu after this weekend — and we don’t know when it will return.
Only this weekend at:
BKC Marble Arch - 7 Edgware Road, London W2 2ER
BKC Soho - 8 Moor Street, London W1D 5ND
Book your table. This isn’t just a dish — it’s a memory served warm!
