Full Job Description

About the role

Curry in Hurry is an established dual-concept restaurant in Lithgow, serving authentic Indian cuisine alongside a full fried chicken and burger menu across dine-in, pick-up and local delivery, seven days a week. We are seeking a qualified and experienced Cook to take full carriage of our kitchen — menu development, costing, and staff training and the quality and safety of everything we serve. This is a senior leadership position, not a line role.

Key duties

Plan and develop menus across both the Indian and fried chicken offerings; estimate food and labour costs, cost recipes, set portion sizes and order supplies to achieve agreed margins
Prepare and cook a wide range of authentic Indian dishes, including curries, biryani, tandoori dishes, naan and other breads, and vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals, producing base gravies, masalas and marinades from scratch
Prepare and cook the fried chicken menu, including golden chicken pieces, burgers, wraps and sides, to the same standards of quality and consistency
Monitor the quality of dishes at every stage of preparation, cooking and presentation, maintaining consistent taste, portion size and plating
Demonstrate cooking techniques and advise kitchen staff on preparation, cooking and presentation procedures
Select, train, supervise and roster junior kitchen staff, and allocate duties across each service period
Explain and enforce food hygiene and food safety regulations, including temperature control, allergen management, and the correct labelling, storage, freezing and preservation of food under the Food Standards Code
Manage stock rotation and wastage, control kitchen workflow during peak service, and oversee day-to-day kitchen operations and equipment

Essential requirements

AQF Certificate IV or Diploma in Commercial Cookery, or an equivalent overseas qualification; or a minimum of three years of full-time experience as a Chef in a commercial kitchen
Demonstrated experience in authentic Indian cookery, including tandoor cookery, curry bases and gravies, biryani and Indian breads
Demonstrated experience in menu planning, recipe costing, portion control and supplier ordering
Sound knowledge of Australian food safety and hygiene requirements, and experience supervising and training kitchen staff
Proven ability to maintain quality and consistency under sustained high-volume service
Availability for a rotating seven-day roster, and full and unrestricted working rights in Australia

Desirable

Food Safety Supervisor certificate (NSW); prior Cook experience in a multi-cuisine kitchen
