Dry fenugreek leaves are also known as Kasoori Methi. Fenugreek leaves are hygienic, flavorful & tasty. Mash these leaves and sprinkle over curries and non-juicy vegetable dishes before serving, and enjoy the wonderful flavour. Kasoori methi can be added to the dough for making Indian bread (paratha & naan).
Made from peeled, dried, green mangoes. Used as souring agent, in marinades and as a tenderiser. Best used towards the end of cooking.
The flavour is slightly acidic/sweet.
Available in 20 x 100g bag.
This aromatic spice has an aniseed-like taste and is used in Chinese spice blends. Great on spare-ribs, crispy duck, roast chicken, and in beef soups and stir fries. Best used sparingly and can be ground before use.
Very hot, small whole chillies that can be used instead of fresh chillies. Heat them in oil until they increase in size. The frying enhances their flavour. Birdseye chillies may be small but they are very hot so use with care!
Similar to cinnamon but with a coarser, thicker bark. The taste is stronger than true cinnamon with a very subtle clove undernote. Used in pilau's, lamb and other meat dishes.
