Ordering Indian food for a group in Kastrup is one of the easiest ways to feed a crowd without anyone slaving over a stove. A film night, a football evening, a birthday at home, a team dinner after work — Indian food is built for sharing. Big bowls in the middle of the table, everyone tearing naan and spooning curry onto their own plate. At Inder'n on Sirgræsvej 4 we cook every main fresh, so a group order arrives hot, generous and ready to share.
The hard part is usually not the food. It is figuring out how much to order, what to pick so everyone is happy, and how to time it so it all lands warm. This guide solves all three.
How much Indian food to order for a group
The most common mistake is under-ordering rice and naan and over-ordering mains. Curry is rich, so a little goes a long way once you have something to soak it up with. Here is the rule of thumb we give regulars when they order Indian food for a group in Kastrup:
- Mains: roughly one main per person, but you do not need a different dish for everyone. Three to four mains shared between six people is plenty.
- Rice: one portion of basmati rice for every two people.
- Naan: a little more than one per person — naan disappears fast.
- Starters: samosa or pakora, count two pieces per person to keep everyone going while the mains land.
For a group of six, a balanced order looks like: four mains, three portions of rice, seven naan, and a round of samosas. With mains from 109 kr that lands at a friendly price per head — far cheaper than a sit-down dinner, and you eat it on your own sofa.
What to order so a mixed group is happy
The trick with a group is range: one crowd-pleaser, one bolder dish, and one or two vegetarian options so nobody is left out. From our menu, a spread that almost never fails:
- Butter Chicken — the safe, creamy, mild crowd-pleaser everyone reaches for first.
- Lamb Rogan Josh — deeper and more aromatic for the ones who want bigger flavour.
- Palak Paneer — fresh spinach and Indian cheese, the vegetarian anchor of the table.
- Daal Makhani — slow-cooked black lentils, rich and satisfying, and naturally vegetarian.
Add garlic naan and basmati rice to share, a few samosas to start, and a couple of mango lassi to cool the spice down. You can build the whole thing from our full menu in a few minutes. If your group has a low spice tolerance, tell us — we can keep the heat gentle without losing the flavour.
How to order a group takeaway and time it right
For small groups, just order online and pick up — most orders are ready in 15–20 minutes. For a bigger order, eight people or more, a little notice helps. Because every dish is cooked fresh, calling ahead means everything finishes at the same moment and goes into the bags hot, instead of the first curry going cold while the last one cooks.
The fastest options:
- Order online at indern.dk/bestil — build your group order dish by dish and choose pickup or delivery.
- Call us on +45 50 29 13 71 to talk through a large order and a pickup time.
We deliver across Kastrup, Tårnby and the rest of Amager, so whether the group is gathering near Copenhagen Airport, by the Øresund coast, or in a flat in Tårnby, the food comes to you. Inder'n is at Sirgræsvej 4, 2770 Kastrup, and we are open Tuesday to Sunday, 16:00–20:30 (closed Mondays).
Why Indian food beats pizza for a crowd
Pizza is the default group order, but it is the same flavour on every slice. An Indian spread gives a group variety in one delivery — mild and bold, meat and vegetarian, creamy and dry, all on the same table. It travels well, reheats well the next day, and it scales: feeding four or fourteen is the same idea, just bigger bowls. For a group in Kastrup that wants something more interesting than the usual Friday order, a shared Indian feast is hard to beat.
