Curry secret to United's success
-
An award-winning restaurant owner says that his healthy fish curries have helped Manchester United become the most famous football club in the world.
And to celebrate his 18 years of success, Sir Anam Islam is paying tribute to the current crop of stars with a menu made in their honour.
“Manchester United players have been coming to Taste Of Raj since we first opened in 1990,” says Sir Anam. “I like to think that our healthy dishes have added some fire to the players’ bellies and helped them win trophies.”
Based in Congleton, Cheshire, the restaurant has been rebranded as Ignite – The Authentic Taste Of Raj, and boasts a who’s who of British football as regulars down the years.
“David Beckham, Cristiano Ronaldo, Sir Alex Ferguson, Mark Hughes, Roy Keane – they have all enjoyed our tasty cuisine,” says Sir Anam. “These stars could eat anywhere but come to us for the quality of our food and knowing that it is a healthy option.”
Ignite – The Authentic Taste Of Raj’s chefs are some of the best in the business with a wealth of experience cooking authentic Indian and Bangladeshi food. The most popular dish is simply called Tasty Fish, and is cooked over charcoal with more than 35 spices. Cholesterol free vegetable oil is used instead of the traditional ghee and all meats are organically grown on local farms.
“Curry is often portrayed as being unhealthy, but not in my restaurant,” says Sir Anam. “You can enjoy the nation’s favourite food at Ignite without feeling guilty, and you might even recognise a few famous faces.”
