Edinburgh-based charity Social Bite has launched its first at-home dining box in collaboration with celebrity chef Tony Singh - allowing Capital foodies to enjoy restaurant-class food while also helping in the fight to end homelessness.
The 'Singh 4 Your Supper' menu features a variety of fresh, rich and aromatic Indian-inspired flavours across eight dishes and a selection of sauces.
The boxes, priced at £60 each, come with an easy-to-follow preparation, cooking and plating instructions - but hungry locals will have to act fast, with a limited number of the boxes available.
Money raised from the boxes will be pumped back into the social enterprise's projects in ending rough sleeping worldwide.
Chef Singh said: “Social Bite is such an incredible cause so when they asked me to get involved in creating some home dining boxes, it was an easy yes.”
“My passion is creating delicious, high-quality food, that can be shared together. But what makes these boxes even more special, is that these will be helping to support Social Bite’s mission of ending homelessness.”
All of the dishes are inspired by the Leith-born chef's love of family cooking, with Kerala King Prawn, Butter Chicken, Aloo Chole and Gulab Jamun for dessert.
Sides include Spiced Fur Fur, Paratha, Jeera Pilau Rice and spiced onions with a selection of sauces; mango, mint, yoghurt and tamarind.
Pre-orders for the boxes open on April 22nd, with the kits then available to be collected from Social Bite Cafes in Edinburgh and Glasgow city centre, as well as their Central Kitchen in Livingston on May 7 and 8.
Josh Littlejohn MBE, CEO and Co-Founder of Social Bite, added: “It’s been great to work with the incredibly talented Tony Singh to help produce our first ever home dining boxes.”
“The menu we’ve created gives people a real taste of India and allows them to enjoy the recommendations of one of the country’s top chefs from the comfort of their own home.”
“As the world starts to open back up it’s really important to us that we continue to find new ways for people to support the mission of ending homelessness while also enjoying the easing of restrictions.
"Every box purchased helps us in our mission of providing real jobs, permanent homes and support to help get people back on their feet, as well as the wider mission of ending homelessness.”
