Orange City Saoji

Taste of Nagpur

Nagpur's Orange City Saoji is one of the spiciest dishes not only in Maharashtra, but across India. If you are a foodie who enjoys eating spicy foods, Maharashtra is renowned to some of the world's spicier delicious foods. While most people who enjoy Maharashtrian cuisine prefer Malvani or Kolhapuri cuisine due to its high spice content, what many are not aware of is that the Saoji cuisine of Nagpur is also spicier. In fact, Saoji cuisine is one of the spiciest in Maharashtra.

Saoji Spicy Masale

Saoji cuisine is made using a unique blend of 32 spices, including dry red chillies, peppercorns, cinnamon, nutmeg, and others. Saoji masala is usually produced with jute oil, which gives an extra depth of flavour to Saoji cuisine dishes. Although Saoji cuisine typically features mutton, fish, and chicken, there are many vegetarian dishes available today.

Dining & Takeout

Orange City Saoji is a popular restaurant for both dining in and takeout due to its limited menu of Nagpuri-specific Saoji dishes. Each meal, from their mutton masala to their fish and chicken, is full of spicy flavour.

Their Saoji Mutton Masala and Saoji Mutton Kaleji are must-haves, especially when served with freshly prepared Jowar Bhakris. Their Crab Saoji Rassa, as well as their Paneer Saoji, are two dishes not to be missed.
