Curry in a Hurry

Curry in a Hurry brings Raleigh food crafted by award winning Chef Alaksha Surti, whose roots in southern India shaped a lifelong connection to authentic spice driven cooking. The truck highlights three signature curry bowls served over basmati rice: butter chicken cooked in a creamy tomato base, green chicken simmered in coconut milk with Thai inspired aromatics, and lamb curry braised until tender in tomatoes and caramelized onions. These bowls reflect the family traditions she learned from her mother and grandmothers, brought forward with skill and heart.

Street food favorites bring another trio of character filled options that show why the truck has grown from a catering dream to a community staple. Guests choose from the Lambwich wrapped in hot naan with spiced lamb meatballs, the chicken tikka kati roll layered with peppers and a house secret sauce, or the paneer tikka version that gives vegetarians a rich and satisfying pick. Each one carries the warm, generous spirit Chef Alaksha shares with every customer she feeds.

Snacks round things out with three comforting essentials that pair perfectly with any curry or roll. Small vegetable samosas offer a crispy bite of potatoes and peas with a touch of sweetness from tamarind chutney. Garlic naan brings soft texture and aromatic richness. Channa masala provides a hearty vegan option built on chickpeas and tomatoes. With a mission shaped by her own childhood experiences and her commitment to giving back, Curry in a Hurry serves Raleigh food that feels heartfelt, skillful, and rooted in true culinary heritage.
