Spice Aangan - The Forest Garden

Where fire, flavour, and nature come together

A Taste Rooted in Nature

At Spice Aangan, we cook with fresh, locally sourced ingredients, keeping Rajasthan’s flavours at the centre. The idea is simple: use what’s in season and keep the cooking honest. Most of our produce comes from nearby farms, and some is grown in our own food forest, which adds freshness and a real connection to what’s served on your plate.

The menu brings together North and South Indian dishes, along with Mughlai, Rajasthani favourites, and a few global options. There’s something for everyone, whether you prefer vegetarian, vegan, or a mix of both. The focus stays on balanced flavours and food that feels familiar, without making it too heavy or complicated.

The setting adds quietly to the overall experience. Open sky, a warm fire, and a calm space make it easy to slow down and stay a little longer. It’s about good food, a relaxed atmosphere, and time that feels easy, comfortable, and worth coming back for.

Dine Amidst Wilderness

Set in a calm, green space, this is more than just a place to eat. If you’re looking for something different while dining in Sariska, this offers a more relaxed and personal experience. The Mughal-style tent, natural colours, and simple details give it a warm, lived-in feel. Seating is limited, so it never feels crowded or loud. You can sit inside in a cosy setup or step out towards the portico, where a light breeze and the surrounding greenery make the experience feel even more open and relaxed.

The views gradually open up as you settle into the Aravalli hills in the distance, the stillness of the pool, and small glimpses of the kitchen and retreat around you. Nothing feels overdone, but everything adds quietly to the overall mood, making it feel like a calm restaurant in Sariska. It’s a space designed to feel easy. Whether you’re indoors or under the open sky, the idea is simple: good food, a calm setting, and time that you can actually enjoy without feeling rushed.

Service here is kept simple and attentive, without being intrusive. The pace here is slow, so you don’t feel rushed at any point. You can sit for as long as you like and eat at your own pace. Some people come for a quick meal, others stay longer with friends or family. Conversations, food, and a little extra time at the table, everything flows easily without feeling heavy.

Locally Inspired, Globally Loved

The menu is built around familiar Indian flavours, with Rajasthani and Mughlai dishes, along with a few global options. From biryanis to pasta, everything is made using fresh, seasonal ingredients, most of which come from nearby, including our own food forest. The focus stays on keeping things familiar while adding small touches that make the food interesting without overcomplicating it. Whether you’re in the mood for something traditional or trying something different, there’s enough variety to choose from.

Daal Baati Churma

Hearty | Traditional | Ghee-Rich
A classic from Rajasthan, daal baati churma is filling and full of flavour. The baatis are baked till they turn crisp on the outside but stay soft inside, then broken slightly and dipped in ghee. They’re served with a warm dal that has a smoky taste and pairs well with the baati. Churma comes on the side, a little sweet and crumbly, which balances the rest of the plate. Together, it’s a meal that feels complete without trying too hard. It’s usually eaten slowly and often shared at the table. Best enjoyed hot, it’s the kind of food that feels familiar, simple, and satisfying every time. It reflects the kind of food that has been part of local kitchens for years simple in its ingredients but rich in taste. Whether you’re trying it for the first time or coming back to it again, it always feels familiar, filling, and easy to enjoy.

Laal Maas

Spicy | Bold | Slow-Cooked
Laal maas is a traditional mutton curry of Rajasthan, known for its deep red colour and strong, spicy flavour. It’s made using Mathania red chillies and basic spices, nothing too complicated, just enough to bring out the heat properly without masking the taste of the meat. The curry is cooked slowly on a low flame, giving the meat time to turn soft and absorb the gravy. The texture stays tender, and the flavours come through clearly without too many layers or heavy richness. It’s not a subtle dish, and it’s not meant to be. The spice is noticeable, the taste is bold, and it holds its place on the table without needing anything extra. Usually served hot with roti or rice, it’s often shared. It’s filling, straightforward, and the kind of food people come back to when they want something familiar, strong, and satisfying.

Moradabadi Biryani

Fragrant | Layered | Subtle
Moradabadi biryani doesn’t feel heavy like most other biryanis. It’s lighter, so you can enjoy it without feeling heavy, even if you have a bit more. The focus is more on balance than strong spice. It’s made with long-grain basmati rice and mildly spiced meat. The flavours are simple and don’t try to overpower each other. You can actually taste each part of the dish, instead of everything blending into one strong flavour. The rice stays soft and separate, and the meat is cooked till tender. It mixes well without feeling greasy or too intense. This style comes from Uttar Pradesh and has a quieter, more subtle taste. It’s often served with sliced onions, lemon, and green chillies on the side, which adds a bit of freshness when you need it. Served hot, it’s the kind of food that feels easy, familiar, and something you can come back to without thinking too much.

Kathi Rolls

On-the-Go | Juicy | Street-Style
Kathi rolls are easy to pick up and eat, especially when you don’t want anything too heavy. They’re filling, but still feel light enough to enjoy without thinking much. A soft, flaky paratha holds everything together with smoky kebabs, fresh veggies, and chutneys that add just enough flavour. The balance works well without making it feel overloaded. The paratha gets a slight crisp on the outside, while the inside stays warm and soft. The filling is juicy and comes together well without feeling messy. You still get a bit of crunch from the onions, which adds to the texture. It is inspired by Kolkata street food, but this dish is not overdone or complicated. It is made in such a way that it works. You can eat it as a snack or as a proper dish, depending on your mood.

Pan-Fried Noodles

Crunchy | Saucy | Indo-Chinese
Pan-fried noodles are all about texture and balance. The noodles are cooked till slightly crisp on the outside while staying soft inside, giving a mix that feels satisfying without being too heavy. They’re mixed with fresh vegetables and a light soy-garlic sauce that ties everything together without feeling too much. You get a bit of crunch from the vegetables, and the sauce adds flavour without taking over. It’s simple, but it works. It’s not overly spicy or greasy, so it’s easy to enjoy without getting full too quickly. You can have it as a full meal or even share it with someone. This is one of those dishes that feels familiar and easy to pick. Nothing complicated, just a combination that works well every time. Served hot, it’s best eaten straight from the pan when the texture is just right and everything still feels fresh.

Jhol Momo Soup

Spiced | Warming | Nepali-Inspired
Jhol momo soup is a comforting dish with soft steamed momos in a hot broth. It is flavored with garlic and chili, which means it is slightly spicy, although not extremely so. It is warm, tangy, and can be enjoyed, especially if it is fresh. The momos soak up the broth, so each bite feels a little more flavourful. The dumplings stay soft, and the soup keeps things light, which makes it filling without feeling heavy. It’s simple food, but it works well. Inspired by Nepali street food, it has a homely feel rather than anything too styled. It’s the kind of dish people go for when they want something warm and easy. Served hot, it’s especially good during cooler evenings. You can have it as a light meal or even start with it. It’s easy to like, easy to finish, and something you don’t get bored with quickly.
