A WELL-known Kilmarnock bakery has announced a major collaboration with a Glasgow restaurant to launch two new curry pies.
Brownings the Bakers and Mister Singh’s India have teamed up with Aldi Scotland to create Chicken Bhoona and South Indian Garlic Chilli Chicken pies, now available in all 113 Aldi stores across Scotland.
The pies combine Brownings’ award-winning pastry with the restaurant’s signature curry recipes.
Declan McMahon, managing director of Brownings the Bakers, said: "The partnership came about through a shared passion for great food and a desire to create something a little different.
"Brownings has been making pies for generations, while Mister Singh’s has built a fantastic reputation for bold, authentic curry flavours, so working together felt like a natural fit.
"We’re proud of how the products have turned out and are excited to give customers the chance to enjoy two much-loved curry flavours in a completely new way at Aldi stores across Scotland."
Each pie is priced at £4.99 for a two-pack and features restaurant-quality curry fillings in a classic Scottish pie.
Satty Singh, founder of Mister Singh’s India, said: "This is a meeting of two Scottish food traditions, bringing together our Indian restaurant heritage and Brownings’ baking expertise.
"From the very first bite customers will enjoy golden, flaky pastry followed by the rich, familiar flavours of a Mister Singh’s curry."
Aldi Scotland is the first retailer to stock the pies, which went on sale on November 12.
Alan Leslie, buying director for Aldi Scotland, said: "This collaboration brings two heavyweights of Scottish food together, blending cultures, flavours and generations of expertise to create something really special.
"It’s a fantastic example of the innovation happening across Scotland’s food industry, and I’d encourage shoppers to act quickly and get their hands on them while they can."
