A 16 oz T-bone steak, slow-braised, grilled and served over beef and bone marrow curry.
Yes, Leeds — we went there.
At Kerala Canteen, we like taking familiar dishes and giving them a different direction. For this dish, we started with a generous T-bone steak and took it somewhere very different. The steak comes with our signature beef and bone marrow curry, finished with hassel potatoes.
It is not a classic steakhouse plate. Instead, it brings together a proper cut of beef with the flavours we love at Kerala Canteen.
That is what makes it different.
What Makes Our T-Bone Steak Different?
The cut is only part of the story.
First, we slow-braise the 16 oz T-bone. After that, we grill it to give the beef a rich finish and a deep grilled flavour.
Then comes the part that changes everything.
Rather than using a standard steak sauce, we serve the T-bone over our signature beef and bone marrow curry.
As a result, you get a proper steak dinner with the character of South Indian cooking.
It is familiar. It is unexpected. Most importantly, it is made our way.
16 oz Slow-Braised and Grilled T-Bone Steak
A T-bone deserves attention.
For this dish, we start with a 16 oz cut. The steak goes through a slow braise first, which helps build its rich flavour.
We then finish it on the grill.
This gives the beef a grilled finish while keeping the dish rich and satisfying. Together, the slow braise and the grill give the steak its own character.
It is a generous main course, so it is made for anyone who takes their steak seriously.
Signature Beef & Bone Marrow Curry
This is where the dish really changes direction.
We serve the T-bone on top of our signature beef and bone marrow curry. The curry brings extra richness to the beef and gives the plate a clear South Indian character.
Instead of keeping the curry on the side, we make it part of the dish.
That means the steak and curry work together from the first bite.
You get the grilled beef first. Then comes the rich curry. Finally, the hassel potatoes add another texture.
It is a simple idea, but the combination is anything but ordinary.
Hassel Potatoes on the Side
The T-bone comes with hassel potatoes, adding another texture to the plate.
They bring crisp edges and a satisfying centre. At the same time, they work well with the rich beef and bone marrow curry.
Because the main course already has plenty going on, the potatoes keep things balanced.
Sometimes, a familiar side is exactly what a bold dish needs.
A Modern Indian Dining Experience in Leeds
Kerala Canteen is not built around the usual curry house formula.
Instead, we take a modern South Indian approach to dining, with chef-led dishes, sharing plates and unexpected combinations. The menu brings together Indian flavours with ideas from other food traditions.
That approach gives us room to experiment.
For example, one dish might take inspiration from British roast culture. Another might bring together a 16 oz T-bone and beef and bone marrow curry.
The idea is simple: take something familiar and give it a reason to be remembered.
So, if you are searching for a modern Indian restaurant in Leeds city centre, expect more than the usual curry and rice.
