  • Made with love

    We put the time and care at our end to make 'cooking from scratch' easy at your end. Our spices are sourced locally. Each spice is dry-roasted to extract its full flavour before cooking our pastes to ensure they are safe to eat direct from the jar!

  • Small batches

    Our recipes are passed down to us through friends and family. My husband and I do all the cooking and packing in small batches using ingredients you'll identify. You won't have this lying around your fridge for long!

  • Add them everywhere

    Our Indian flavours work in all your everyday meals. From a dahl to a prawn stir-fry, from saag paneer to a Sunday roast and from a light yoghurt dressing to a yummy curry, our pastes are versatile. How you use our pastes is your choice!

From my grandmother

Dolly,

I inherited a life-long love for food. Hearty, bursting with flavour, Mumma's food always tasted like a tight hug. If they can taste the love, they will love the taste, she taught us.

Our story

But cooking at home

Felt hard

What spices do I put and when? Curry powder or Garam Masala? Why does every dish need a tadka? It felt easier to get a takeaway.

It took moving back to India, starting a food blog and experimenting (many, many times) with spices to learn that when you have the basics right, Indian cooking is simple!

It's why we created

Your shortcuts. Curry pastes and spice blends that we've slaved over so that you don't have to.
