IndeBlue Farm Fresh Menu - Indeblue : Collingswood, NJ
Right now, several restaurants in Collingswood are celebrating local
farmers by using farm fresh ingredients to create special menus. At Inde
Blue, you can create a 3 course meal from the farm fresh menu for
$30.00 and you’ll also receive a coupon for $10.00 off your next order. (Not too shabby.)
I had actually made dinner reservations for Monday evening, but I had
to cancel them due to my ER visit. So I re-booked a table for Friday
night.
My 3 course meal consisted of:
- Aloo Makkai Tikki
spiced potato & corn kernel patties / house-made apple chutney
- Twin Bombay Burgers
mustard & curry leaf flavored potato patties / tomato onion / green & tamarind chutney pao (indian style buns) / sweet potato pakora
- Lasooni Naan nan withfresh garlic, butter & cilantro (not included in the farm fresh meal, but I ordered it anyway.)
- Banana Nirvana

Aloo Makkai Tikki |
My first course, the Aloo Makkai Tikki, was beautifully presented and delicious. (Although I couldn’t pronounce it to save my life.)
The little patties were the perfect size for an appetizer. Everything
was nicely spiced, and the sweet apple chutney added a beautiful,
complex, flavor to the dish.

Lasooni Naan |
Although naan wasn't included with the meal, I had to order it. The Lasooni Naan is insanely garlicy, just look at it! You can see the garlic! It's super yummy, although it might not be a great foodie option for a date night.

Twin Bombay Burgers |
Next up was my main course, the Twin Bombay Burgers. I think a lot of you know this already, but beef isn’t a part of the Indian diet. (Even the McDonalds and fast food locations in India sell 100% veggie burgers.)
These mini burgers are no exception, they are 100% beef free. The
patties are made with potato and other spiced vegetables instead of
meat, so the finished “burgers” have a creamy consistency inside and a
fried, crisp, outside. If you like veggie burgers, you’ll love this
dish. As a side dish you are given fried sweet potato crisps with three
different dipping sauces. Two of the sauces were sweet but the green one
to the far right was really spicy. My boyfriend enjoyed that one, but
it was just too much for me to handle. This meal was delicious, but it
was a little difficult to eat. The burgers were miniaturized, but each
one was still very tall. I had a hard time trying to get all the flavors
in one bite and would end up with a lot of the top bun left over.

Banana Nirvana |
To finish things off I had the Banana Nirvana. There wasn’t a
description of this dessert on the farm fresh menu, so I wasn’t sure
what I would be getting, but the name sounded interesting. (Plus I am on a banana kick lately.)
When the dessert arrived there was a scoop of homemade cinnamon ice
cream in the middle and two little doughnut-like pastries. It turns out
that this dessert is two, dense, banana-bread-like spheres baked in
caramel. They were very moist and rich. I scrapped every bit of caramel
and ice cream off the plate. It was so delicious.
If you’re in the area I highly recommend stopping by IndeBlue and
trying the farm fresh menu. It ends on the 31st, so go get some yummy
food while you can!
