Tandoor Chef recently launched two new toaster oven-friendly Pocket Sandwiches inspired by Indian street food. The new Indian Railway Chicken and Chicken Tikka Masala products introduce snacks in a convenient handheld format; in the case of the Chicken Tikka Masala Pocket Sandwich, this snack has a filling that is based off of the brand's best-selling Chicken Tikka Masala entrée.
The frozen, microwave-friendly snack products make it easy for consumers to enjoy a taste of authentic Indian cuisine without the hassle of preparing a dish from scratch.
Across the food and beverage industry, a number of Indian-inspired products are now appearing in North America, driven by a growing consumer desire for exotic globally inspired flavors, experimentation and a hint of spiciness.
