Born and raised in Amritsar, the land of legendary tandoori cuisine, he grew up watching his grandfather expertly craft succulent kebabs and perfectly charred naan in the family’s backyard clay oven. Inspired by these early experiences, Arjun pursued formal training in culinary arts and worked in some of the most renowned kitchens in Delhi before bringing his expertise to Perth.

At Saffron Spice, Chef Arjun masterfully handles the searing heat of the tandoor, creating dishes that are smoky, juicy, and infused with bold, authentic flavors. His signature Murgh Malai Tikka, marinated in creamy cashew and cardamom, melts in the mouth, while his Tandoori Lamb Chops, spiced to perfection, have become a customer favorite. Every piece of naan, kulcha, and roti that leaves his station is hand stretched, crisped to perfection, and brushed with just the right amount of butter.

For Arjun, the craft of tandoori cooking transcends mere culinary skill; it embodies a rich and vibrant art form that has been lovingly passed down through countless generations of his family. He holds a deep seated belief in the importance of authenticity in his cooking, which drives him to utilize traditional spice blends that have been carefully curated over time, as well as slow marination techniques that are essential for unlocking the full potential and true essence of each ingredient he works with.

Whether he is attentively tending to skewers of chicken sizzling away in the tandoor or meticulously perfecting the delicate balance between char and tenderness in a dish, Arjun's unwavering passion for tandoori flavors radiates through every single bite. His dedication to preserving the heritage of this cooking style not only enhances the flavor profiles of his dishes but also tells a story of cultural significance and respect for tradition that is palpable to all who have the pleasure of tasting his creations.

Murgh Malai Tikka

Delicately marinated chicken, soaked in a blend of yogurt, cream, and cashew paste, is the star of this entrée. Chef Arjun Patel takes great care in ensuring the chicken is marinated for a minimum of 12 hours, allowing the flavors to deeply infuse the meat. The marinade is infused with cardamom, black pepper, and a hint of saffron creating a rich, creamy texture that melts in your mouth.

After being thoroughly marinated in a blend of aromatic spices and yogurt, the chicken is expertly threaded onto skewers, ready to be transformed in our traditional tandoor oven. This unique clay oven reaches incredibly high temperatures, allowing the chicken to cook evenly while creating a delightful smoky flavor and a beautifully charred exterior.

The intense heat seals in the natural juices of the chicken, ensuring that each piece remains tender and juicy on the inside, while the outside becomes irresistibly crispy and golden brown. Accompanying this delectable dish is a vibrant side of freshly made mint chutney, which adds a refreshing contrast to the savory flavors of the chicken. The combination of the mild spices, the rich creaminess of the marinade, and the zesty notes from the chutney creates a symphony of flavors that has made this dish a perennial favorite among our patrons at Saffron Spice.

Prawn Malabar Curry

A true showcase of coastal Indian cuisine, the Prawn Malabar Curry brings the flavors of Kerala’s Malabar coast to your plate. Fresh, succulent prawns are simmered in a fragrant coconut milk based gravy, which is infused with curry leaves, mustard seeds, and green chilies. The key to this dish lies in the preparation of the base, where onions and ginger garlic paste are slowly sautéed until golden, releasing their sweetness, before being combined with aromatic spices like turmeric, coriander, and a delicate blend of garam masala.

The prawns are carefully simmered in a rich, spicy sauce infused with coconut, which enhances the natural sweetness of the seafood while harmonizing with the comforting warmth of the spices used. This cooking method allows the prawns to absorb the vibrant flavors of the sauce, creating a dish that is both light and profoundly flavorful.

The resulting curry boasts a creamy consistency that pairs beautifully with the succulent prawns, elevating the overall dining experience. Accompanied by a generous serving of fluffy steamed rice or soft, pillowy naan, this dish is not just a meal; it’s a delightful tribute to the rich and diverse culinary traditions of southern India. Each bite transports you to a place where the bold and aromatic flavors come together in perfect harmony, making this entrée a true celebration of the region's gastronomic heritage.

Samosa Chaat

A perfect fusion of street food and fine dining, the Samosa Chaat at Saffron Spice brings together crispy, golden samosas filled with spiced potatoes, peas, and a hint of cumin. These samosas are hand rolled and deep fried to a crunchy perfection, creating a satisfying contrast to the smoothness of the filling.

Nonetheless, we elevate this delightful dish to new heights by generously drizzling the samosas with a luscious blend of tangy tamarind chutney and refreshing yogurt, creating a harmonious contrast that tantalizes the taste buds. To enhance the flavor profile, we then sprinkle a vibrant mixture of roasted cumin, zesty chili powder, and fresh cilantro over the top, infusing each bite with aromatic warmth and a touch of earthiness.

To complete this culinary masterpiece, we finish it off with a scattering of jewel like pomegranate seeds, which not only add a pop of color but also introduce a delightful burst of sweetness that beautifully complements the other ingredients. This dish embodies the perfect balance of textures and flavors crunchy from the samosas, creamy from the yogurt, and with the sweet, spicy, and sour notes all harmonizing together. Together, these elements create an unforgettable Indian snack experience that is sure to please anyone’s palate.

Paneer Lababdar

Our Paneer Lababdar is an entrée that brings together the richness of a royal Mughlai recipe with the beauty of fresh Indian dairy. The paneer, a soft, spongy Indian cheese, is hand cut into cubes and marinated with a blend of spices like turmeric, chili powder, and garam masala before being cooked in a luxurious, creamy tomato based gravy.

The sauce is crafted through a meticulous slow simmering process that brings together the rich flavors of ripe tomatoes, aromatic onions, fragrant garlic, and zesty ginger. This foundational mixture is further enhanced with the luxurious addition of fresh cream and butter, creating a velvety texture that envelops each ingredient. A careful selection of spices, including a delicate combination of cardamom and cinnamon, infuses the sauce with warmth and depth, adding layers of complexity to the overall flavor profile.

As the paneer cubes are allowed to simmer within this rich concoction, they gradually absorb the vibrant flavors, transforming into tender morsels that melt in the mouth. The sauce itself maintains a delightful tanginess sourced from the tomatoes, which is beautifully balanced by the inherent sweetness of the cream and the warm notes from the spices. When served alongside pillowy naan or fragrant steamed rice, this dish emerges as a rich, indulgent experience that tantalizes the senses and offers a fragrant aroma that fills the air. It stands as a true testament to India’s illustrious culinary heritage, reflecting the country’s regal history and its ability to elevate simple ingredients into extraordinary creations.

Hara Bhara Kebab

A vegetarian delight, the Hara Bhara Kebab showcases the freshness and vibrancy of Indian greens. A mixture of spinach, peas, and potatoes forms the base of the kebab, which is lightly spiced with cumin, garam masala, and a touch of green chilies.

Once the ingredients are meticulously prepared, they are combined and blended together to create a smooth paste that retains just a hint of texture, thanks to the inclusion of fresh herbs and spices. The vibrant flavors of coriander, mint, and ginger are expertly infused into the mixture, enhancing its aromatic profile. With skilled hands, the mixture is shaped into individual kebabs, each one crafted with care to ensure consistency in size and form. These kebabs are then gently fried until they achieve a beautiful golden brown hue, developing a crispy exterior that contrasts wonderfully with their soft and moist interior.

The final product presents an exquisite harmony of earthy greens and rich spices, complemented by a subtle kick of heat that tantalizes the taste buds. Served alongside a tangy tamarind dip, these kebabs make for an exceptional starter, perfect for those who are in search of a light yet flavor packed entrée that offers both nourishment and satisfaction.

Our main dishes

Hyderabadi Dum Biryani

A dish that speaks of tradition and royal heritage, the Hyderabadi Dum Biryani is the epitome of Indian comfort food. At Saffron Spice, we take great pride in the authenticity of our biryani. Long grain basmati rice, handpicked for its fragrance, is layered with tender, marinated chicken or lamb, which has been slowly soaked in a special blend of yogurt, fried onions, mint, saffron, and a secret blend of spices.

The marinated meat is placed in a pot and cooked under a tightly sealed lid, allowing the dish to simmer in its own steam. This method enables the meat to absorb all the rich aromas and spices, enhancing its flavor. In the pot, the rice and marinated meat are carefully layered, ensuring that each component is evenly distributed. The cooking technique employed, known as “dum,” involves a slow cooking process that allows the ingredients to meld together, bringing out a profound depth of flavor that is characteristic of traditional biryani.

The final result is a beautifully cooked biryani, where each grain of rice is infused with fragrant spices, creating a delightful aroma, while the meat remains succulent and tender, practically falling off the bone. This dish is typically served with a refreshing raita, which helps to balance the spices, along with a side of tangy pickles that add an extra layer of flavor. Ultimately, this culinary masterpiece is a true representation of Hyderabad’s gastronomic heritage, offering a complex yet comforting experience that delights the senses and celebrates the rich traditions of the region's cuisine.

Lamb Rogan Josh

The Lamb Rogan Josh at Saffron Spice is a dish that showcases the rich culinary traditions of Kashmir. This deeply aromatic curry features tender cuts of lamb, slow cooked to perfection in a base of onions, garlic, and ginger, simmered in a rich gravy made with yogurt, tomatoes, and a complex blend of spices, including cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and Kashmiri dried red chilies.

The real enchantment of this dish can be found in the meticulous slow cooking method, during which the lamb gradually soaks up the rich and aromatic flavors of the carefully selected spices. As this process unfolds, the gravy thickens beautifully, resulting in a luxurious, velvety sauce that clings to each piece of meat. The array of spices not only imparts a vibrant hue to the dish but also introduces a comforting depth of flavor that enhances rather than masks the inherent sweetness of the lamb.

Completed with a thoughtful sprinkle of fresh coriander leaves, this dish is typically accompanied by warm naan bread or fluffy rice, making Lamb Rogan Josh a harmonious blend of heat, warmth, and indulgent richness. It stands out as an unforgettable classic, hailing from the scenic northern hills of India, where culinary traditions have been passed down through generations, each adding their own unique touch to this beloved recipe.

Butter Chicken

One of the most beloved dishes at Saffron Spice, Butter Chicken is a quintessential example of Indian comfort food, perfected with a rich history of Mughlai influence. The chicken is marinated overnight in a tangy yogurt mixture, infused with ground turmeric, garam masala, and a touch of cumin, before being grilled to perfection.

The gravy boasts a delicate hint of sweetness that perfectly balances the warm, earthy undertones, while the grilled chicken adds a subtle smokiness that elevates the overall flavor profile. Served alongside soft, pillowy naan or fragrant basmati rice, this dish embodies a perfect combination of comfort and indulgence, ensuring that every mouthful is a delightful experience that brings warmth and satisfaction. Each bite invites you into a world of rich flavors and comforting textures, making it an unforgettable culinary delight.

Goan Fish Curry

Our Goan Fish Curry transports you straight to the coastal beaches of India, where the flavors of the sea meet the tanginess of fresh coconut and the heat of vibrant spices. The fish, often a delicate white fish like basa or snapper, is simmered in a rich, aromatic curry base made from fresh coconut milk, tamarind, and a special blend of Goan spices such as mustard seeds, cumin, and curry leaves.

The preparation begins by sautéing a flavorful base composed of onions, garlic, ginger, and ripe fresh tomatoes, creating a fragrant foundation that enhances the dish's overall aroma and taste. This savory mixture is then blended with a luscious coconut gravy, which envelops the fish in an incredibly rich and aromatic sauce that elevates the dish to new heights.

The addition of tangy tamarind introduces a delightful tartness that beautifully contrasts with the creamy consistency of the coconut, while also harmonizing with the warmth and complexity of the spices used. When paired with a side of steamed rice, this dish truly captures the essence of Goa’s vibrant culinary landscape. It presents a main course that is both delicate and bold, showcasing an authentic balance of spice and sweetness that tantalizes the palate and transports you to a tropical paradise.

Our Desserts

Gulab Jamun

In the realm of Indian cuisine, few desserts hold as much significance and reverence as Gulab Jamun. At Saffron Spice, we take immense pride in our ability to transform this beloved classic into a truly exceptional experience. Our Gulab Jamun consists of delicate, velvety dumplings crafted from a rich blend of milk powder and khoya, which is essentially concentrated milk that has been lovingly reduced to enhance its flavors. To this delightful mixture, we add a subtle touch of cardamom, infusing each bite with a warm, aromatic essence.

Once shaped, these dumplings are expertly deep fried to achieve a perfect golden brown hue, creating a delightful contrast with the soft, melt in your mouth texture that awaits inside. At Saffron Spice, we don't just serve dessert; we offer a celebration of tradition and craftsmanship in every bite of our exquisite Gulab Jamun.

The magic happens when the hot, crispy dumplings are submerged in a fragrant sugar syrup flavored with rose water and saffron. The syrup soaks into the dough, infusing the Gulab Jamun with its sweet, floral notes. When you bite into one, it’s a heavenly burst of warm, sweet syrup and soft, spongy dough that melts in your mouth. The combination of textures from the crunchy outer layer to the delicate, syrup soaked interior is truly irresistible. We serve it warm, and every bite is a perfect blend of sweetness, richness, and comfort.

Ras Malai

A delicacy from the heart of India, Ras Malai is a dessert that combines the smoothness of milk with the richness of traditional Indian sweets. At Saffron Spice, we use freshly made malai (thick cream) and infuse it with a blend of cardamom, saffron, and rose water, creating a silky, aromatic sauce. The foundation of this dish is the delicate rasgulla, a spongy, soft cheese dumpling made from fresh chhena (Indian cottage cheese). These dumplings soak up the fragrant, creamy milk, becoming plump and soft, with a subtle sweetness.

The unique combination of cardamom and saffron in this dish elevates its flavor profile to new heights, infusing the rich cream with a warm, subtly spicy essence accompanied by a delicate floral undertone. This exquisite pairing creates a harmonious blend that tantalizes the palate and enhances the overall experience of the dessert.

To add an extra layer of texture and flavor, the dish is beautifully garnished with finely chopped pistachios and almonds, which provide a delightful crunch that contrasts beautifully with the creamy base. Ras Malai stands out as a luxurious dessert that masterfully balances the qualities of lightness and indulgence. It offers a refreshing conclusion to your meal, leaving you with a sense of satisfaction while indulging in its rich and creamy goodness. This dessert is not just a treat for the taste buds; it is a celebration of flavors and textures that make it a memorable way to end any dining experience.

Kulfi

Kulfi is India’s answer to ice cream, and at Saffron Spice, we make it the traditional way rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Unlike Western ice cream, Kulfi is made by slowly simmering full fat milk with sugar, saffron, and cardamom, allowing it to reduce into a thick, custard like base. This base is then poured into molds and frozen, creating a dense, intensely flavorful frozen dessert.

The outcome is a luxuriously smooth and velvety texture that perfectly showcases the warm, aromatic flavors of saffron and cardamom, which harmoniously enhance the natural sweetness of the milk. We take pride in offering a diverse selection of flavors to tantalize your taste buds. Among our offerings is the timeless Pistachio Kulfi, where crunchy, roasted pistachios are expertly blended into the creamy milk base, adding a delightful texture that complements the richness of the dessert.

Then, there’s our Mango Kulfi, which provides a refreshing and vibrant twist on the traditional recipe, incorporating ripe mango puree that brings a tangy sweetness to the mix, creating a perfect balance of flavors. Whether you choose to enjoy it on a stick for a fun, portable treat or have it sliced into elegant pieces for a more refined presentation, Kulfi is an ideal way to cool down on a warm day. Each bite offers an indulgent escape into the authentic flavors of India, making it not just a dessert, but a truly delightful experience that celebrates the rich culinary heritage of the region. Treat yourself to this exquisite frozen dessert, and savor the rich textures and flavors that will transport you to the vibrant streets of India.

Jalebi

The Jalebi at Saffron Spice is an iconic Indian sweet that combines crispy, golden spirals of dough with a sweet, sticky syrup, offering the perfect balance of texture and flavor. Our chefs create this delicate treat by first making a batter of refined flour, water, and a touch of saffron, which is then deep fried into intricate, spiral shapes.

After being fried to a delightful golden crisp, the jalebis are swiftly immersed in a warm syrup that is delicately infused with the enchanting aromas of rose water, the warm spice of cardamom, and a subtle touch of saffron. This careful dunking allows the sweet, syrupy liquid to penetrate the crunchy outer layer while ensuring that the inside retains a pleasing softness.

The result is an extraordinary fusion of hot, crispy sweetness combined with the rich, fragrant essence of the syrup. Served warm, jalebi becomes more than just a dessert; it transforms into a celebration of deep rooted culinary tradition. Each bite offers a delightful contrast of textures and flavors, creating a sweet and crispy experience that is enhanced beautifully when enjoyed alongside a steaming cup of traditional Indian chai. This pairing not only elevates the taste but also encapsulates the warmth and hospitality that is synonymous with Indian culture.

Gajar Halwa

A beloved winter dessert in India, Gajar Halwa (also known as Gajrela) is a comforting and aromatic dish made from fresh, grated carrots. At Saffron Spice, we slow cook the carrots in a rich, spiced milk mixture, allowing the natural sweetness of the carrots to meld with the creamy richness of the milk, ghee, and sugar.

The dessert is infused with a subtle yet enchanting blend of cardamom, saffron, and just a hint of nutmeg, resulting in a warm, inviting aroma that beautifully captures the spirit of traditional Indian kitchens. The methodical slow cooking process allows the carrots to gently soften and thoroughly absorb the spices, resulting in a texture that practically melts in your mouth.

To elevate the dish further, we crown it with a generous sprinkle of toasted cashews and almonds, which add a satisfying crunch that perfectly contrasts with the soft, creamy foundation of the dessert. Served warm, Gajar Halwa is a luxurious and comforting treat that is ideal for any occasion, though it is particularly enjoyable during the cooler months when its rich flavors can truly be savored.

Shrikhand

A dessert that embodies the elegance of simplicity, Shrikhand is a creamy, yogurt-based delicacy that has been cherished in Indian cuisine for centuries. At Saffron Spice, we prepare our Shrikhand using the finest strained yogurt, which is hung overnight to remove excess moisture, resulting in a luxuriously thick and velvety texture. The yogurt is then gently blended with aromatic saffron, cardamom, and just the right amount of sugar to enhance its natural tanginess.

Once we achieve that luxurious texture, we enhance the yogurt with a delicate blend of aromatic ingredients, including fragrant saffron and warm cardamom, which infuse the dessert with their rich flavors. To balance the natural tanginess of the yogurt, we incorporate just the right amount of sugar, creating a harmonious sweetness that elevates the dish. The final result is a Shrikhand that not only delights the palate but also embodies the essence of traditional Indian desserts, celebrating both its heritage and the artistry of simple yet exquisite flavors.

To enhance this timeless culinary creation, we incorporate a subtle infusion of rose water, which imparts a gentle floral note, and we finish it off with a sprinkle of toasted pistachios and almonds, providing a delightful crunch that contrasts beautifully with the smooth texture of the dish. The addition of golden saffron strands not only brightens the appearance of the dessert with their vivid hue but also enriches the flavor profile with a soft, aromatic warmth that is truly enchanting. Served chilled, Shrikhand offers a dual experience it's both refreshingly cool and decadently rich, creating a harmonious blend of creamy indulgence and sweet fragrance that leaves a lasting impression long after the final mouthful has been savored.

Rasgulla

Soft, spongy, and soaked in a delicate sugar syrup, Rasgulla is a classic Bengali dessert that is loved for its light yet satisfying texture. At Saffron Spice, we prepare our Rasgulla by hand, using freshly made chhena (Indian cottage cheese), which is kneaded into a smooth dough and carefully shaped into soft, round dumplings. These delicate dumplings are then gently simmered in a light, fragrant sugar syrup, allowing them to expand and soak up the sweetness while maintaining their airy, sponge like texture.

The secret to crafting the ideal Rasgulla is found in the delicate balance between sweetness and softness, a harmony that is meticulously achieved through a slow and controlled cooking process. This method allows the cheese balls, made from fresh chenna, to absorb the syrup gradually, ensuring that they become irresistibly juicy. With every bite, the Rasgullas release a delightful burst of syrup that tantalizes the taste buds. When served chilled, each piece is elegantly garnished with a subtle hint of aromatic cardamom and a few delicate strands of saffron, which not only enhance the visual appeal but also elevate the flavor profile. This exquisite dessert is not only light and refreshing but also serves as the perfect finale to a flavorful Indian meal, leaving diners with a satisfying sweetness that lingers on the palate.

Mohanthal

Once the flour is perfectly roasted, we blend it with fragrant cardamom and luxurious saffron, enhancing the flavor profile and adding a touch of elegance. To bring the mixture together, we carefully combine it with a rich sugar syrup that binds the ingredients into a soft, fudge like consistency. The final result is a melt in your mouth experience that not only satisfies your sweet tooth but also evokes the warmth and comfort of traditional Gujarati cuisine. Each bite of Mohanthal is a celebration of texture and taste, making it a cherished dessert for special occasions and festive gatherings alike.

As the mixture begins to set, it transforms into a beautifully delicate texture that crumbles effortlessly, ensuring that each piece is not only rich in flavor but also remarkably light and airy when enjoyed. To elevate the overall taste experience, we thoughtfully sprinkle a generous amount of finely chopped almonds and pistachios atop the dessert, which introduces a delightful crunch that beautifully contrasts with the inherent softness of the Mohanthal. This exquisite dessert embodies a harmonious blend of sweetness, warmth, and nuttiness, serving as a tribute to the rich culinary heritage of Gujarat. It offers a truly exceptional and memorable way to conclude your dining experience at Saffron Spice, leaving you with a lingering sense of satisfaction and a taste of tradition.
