All curries are available with the following; chicken, chicken tikka, keema, mixed vegetables, prawn and king prawn. Adventurous diners can try the AM sizzler specials, served on a bed of sizzling onions and peppers accompanied by pilau rice or chips and AM special sauce. Meat lovers can opt for the mixed sizzler, which comes with lamb chops, chicken tikka pieces and a seekh kebab.

A wide selection of main dishes mean there is plenty on offer for diners. Traditional dishes include the karahi, an extremely popular dish throughout India and Pakistan. Ingredients such as chicken, lamb, okra or seafood are cooked in an aromatic, rich dry sauce with exotic herbs, spices and fresh coriander. Biryani is another highly recommended dish featuring ingredients like king prawn, mixed vegetable and chicken tikka cooked with delicately seasoned masalas and vegetables, garnished with egg and accompanied by a rich chickpea sauce. Of course AM Kitchen Bar and Restaurant also has a great selection of chef recommended dishes such as handi gosht, lamb on the bone cooked in a traditional style with tomatoes, ginger and garlic or haleem, a mixture of lentils and wheat cooked with chicken and lamb in a deep, flavourful sauce and topped with onions, ginger and coriander.

Vegetarians needn’t feel left out as most dishes can be adjusted to suit their dietary needs, however AM Kitchen boasts an extensive veggie menu that is sure to appeal. Tarka daal is a mild lentil dish featuring the beautifully balanced flavours of garlic and ginger, while the moreishly decadent palak paneer features lightly spiced Indian cheese is a fresh spinach puree. Like many restaurants in Leeds dessert options are an important part of the menu. At AM Kitchen there are 2 separate sweet menus covering a broad range of Western influenced puddings, as well as traditional Indian ones. Whether you’re in the mood for lemon sponge with lemon sauce, Belgian waffles or the always-delightful gulab jamon there is something to satisfy even the pickiest sweet tooth!
