Turn whatever is in your fridge into a meal that feels special

Go beyond butter chicken

  • "Ordered a few pastes to liven up boring meals… now I always keep the Tandoori Paste in the fridge. It’s my go-to dinner solution. It makes for a great gift too.”

  • “The Cashew Korma blew me away. No chilli, but the flavour? Unreal. The aroma alone made me jealous of the kids' dinner. Korma nuggets for me too please!"

  • “The kick of flavour I didn’t know we needed. Now I’m adding it to every meal I can think of. Kicking myself for not discovering Dolly Mumma sooner.”

I loved the turmeric latte!

I love having my turmeric latte with oats milk! It has so much flavour! I will definitely order the products again!

Haldi Doodh (Turmeric Latte)

Hands down my favourite product. Can transform any protein into a sensation - and actually, veges too.

My favourite way to level up carrot sticks.

The kick I didn't know I needed

If you're on the fence about this one, climb over already! My only regret is not buying it sooner.
Its so good I'm adding it to every meal I can think of - huge fan of it over hummus on toast right now.

Podi Chilli Oil

Fantastic experience

The tour was paced well and Perzen was entertaining and informative. Although I have been to Sandringham shops many times I felt like I was in a different place! Highly recommend.

Really enjoyed the walk; Perzen was very informative and a great host. All the food was delicious though maybe may palate isn’t quite ready for the cardamom and sugar soup that is chai. Sitting round a table with a bunch of friendly strangers was a welcome flashback to my backpacking.days.

Great experience, highly recommended

Just finished this walk. What a fabulous evening, the food was great, Perzen was a great guide, and the promised rain held off. I enjoyed the food, the company, the commentary, everything really. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys Indian cuisine, and to anyone wanting to be more adventurous than butter chicken.

Rescue dinner now

  • Cooked with care

    We dry-roast our spices and slow-cook each paste to bring out deep, bold flavour—then jar it up so you can skip straight to the good part. No prep, no fuss, just real Indian flavour ready when you are.

  • Fresh batches weekly

    We cook fresh batches of pastes weekly and bottle everything ourselves. Our family recipes use natural ingredients your grandma would recognise. What you get is fresh and aromatic.

  • Add them everywhere

    From dahl to prawn stir-fry, saag paneer to Sunday roast, our pastes bring real Indian flavour to whatever you’re making. Slather onto pizza, stir into pasta or simmer up a curry. The choice is yours.

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

Dolly Mumma

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