About Kadai Chicken Naan Bomb (8 pcs)
This Naan Bomb takes its filling from the iron kadai rather than the sauce pot. We wok-cook chicken with bell peppers, onion and a coarse kadai masala — coriander seed, dried chilli, black pepper — pounded fresh the same day, then cook the mixture down until it is dry enough to seal inside a small round of butter naan dough.
Because the kadai style is drier and more fiery than makhani, this is the bomb for people who found the butter chicken version too gentle. The pepper and toasted coriander come through first, then the sweetness of the charred capsicum. Each of the eight pieces is pinched shut by hand and baked against the wall of the charcoal tandoor until blistered.
It arrives with a kadai-spiced gravy for dipping and mint chutney. If you are ordering several Naan Bomb varieties for the table, this is the one to place next to a cooling raita.
Two minutes walk from Grand Mercure Bangkok Atrium; free parking at the Bangchak gas station right next door.
The other five Naan Bombs — and which curry each one comes with — are on the Naan Bombs list, and why we kept a charcoal tandoor instead of gas explains where the blistering on the crust comes from.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from the Butter Chicken Naan Bomb?
The filling. Kadai chicken is a drier, spicier wok preparation with bell peppers and coarsely ground spices, where butter chicken is a smooth, mild, creamy sauce. Choose kadai if you like heat and texture; butter chicken if you want rich and gentle.
How spicy is it really?
Medium — noticeably spicier than the butter chicken version, led by black pepper and dried red chilli, but short of a vindaloo-level burn. A side of plain curd or boondi raita balances it well if you are heat-shy.
What is kadai masala?
A coarse spice blend named after the iron wok (kadai) it is cooked in — coriander seeds, dried red chillies and black peppercorns, dry-roasted and pounded rather than powdered fine. We grind ours the same day we use it, which is why the aroma is so pronounced.
Does the filling contain capsicum?
Yes — diced green and red bell peppers are wok-charred with the chicken; they are part of the kadai identity. If you dislike capsicum, the Butter Chicken or Tawa Chicken Naan Bombs are pepper-free alternatives.
What comes with the eight pieces?
A bowl of kadai-spiced dipping gravy and our mint chutney. The bombs are brushed with butter out of the tandoor. It works as a shared starter for two to three, or a hands-on main for one.
