The McAloo Tikki, a fried breaded potato and peas patty, is already very successful in the middle-east market and "we are looking at other markets," said Vikram Bakshi, head of Connaught Plaza Restaurants Pvt Ltd, the JV partner of McDonalds Corporation in north zone.
However, the taste of the dishes would be adapted to suit the western palate, he added.
Other Indian dishes in the McDonalds menu here include Veg McCurry Pan, Pizza McPuff and Paneer Salsa Wrap.
The JV company would also in the next one year look at ushering in the franchise model to speed up expansion. Part of this would be a Rs 400 crore (Rs 4 billion) investment already planned for spreading into the eastern market.
Bakshi said the JV would open 45 stores in the next one year, while admitting that they faced acute attrition problem, which was about 83 per cent in the front-end of the restaurant and 5-6 per cent in the high-end.
