The lime and lemongrass in this coconut-based recipe means that it tastes more like a Thai curry than any of our others. Gorgeous as a vegetarian meal, and check out our recipe for an Indonesian lamb curry!

Serves: 4-6

(heat 5/10)

Do not confuse this with a typical North Indian korma! Cooked with lemongrass, lime and coconut milk, and with fennel and star anise in the spice blend, this is a really tangy, medium curry for chicken or fish.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 9/10)

A delicious coconut (and hot!) beef curry from Sumatra, filled with the flavours of star anise and lime leaves. Also lovely with chicken.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 5/10)

An unusual curry with fennel seeds and star anise. Cooked using soy sauce, beef, green beans and potatoes, it is an Indonesian version of the Thai Massaman curry. Also really good as a vegetarian option, or with chicken.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 9/10)

This was one of our first spice blends, and contains szechwan pepper and star anise. The recipe contains pineapple, which may seem unusual but is a fundamental part of Malaysian cooking. It adds a sweet tang to this very spicy dish, and tinned really is better than fresh!

Serves: 4-6

(heat 6/10)

Spicy chunks of chicken served with a sweet and sour (and hot!) dipping sauce.

Serves: 4

(heat 5/10)

This is a delicious, quite dry meat curry, which benefits from being cooked as long as possible. The perfect way to cook venison if you have a surfeit! This spice blend can also be used to make a Panaeng Curry.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 5/10)

A very traditional beef curry. We suggest the potatoes and beans to reduce the saltiness of the dish, and it is delicious with chicken. It is not particularly hot so feel free to add your own fresh chillies.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 4/10)

Use our blend to make a traditional Malay chicken satay, or a more unusual Indonesian version which is perfect with beef or pork.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 2/10)

This is a Singapore curry for the European members of the Yacht club, as remembered by Andrew. Not too spicy, but with that all-important ingredient - tinned pineapple! - this is a real mixture of Malay flavours with a good dose of traditional British curry! This curry is dedicated to Wing Commander Neville Shorrick, who was there too!

Serves: 4-6

(heat 5/10

A tomato & yoghurt curry cooked by Hindus in Singapore for the Festival of Light, Deepavali (Diwali). It combines fennel seeds and star anise with garam masala, cumin and coriander. This was originally a Bitspicy seasonal speciality, but has proved so popular (and so delicious!) that we have made it a permanent fixture in our shop.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 6/10)

A tangy sweet & sour chicken curry using coconut milk, vinegar and sugar. We’ve kept the spices at a medium heat, but it should be a hot curry so be generous with the chillies if you’re not feeding the family!

Serves: 4-6

(heat 6/10)

We use a lot of lovely smoky chipotle chillies in our blend, as well as cumin and smoked paprika. You’ll find our vegetarian recipe here

Serves: 4-6

(heat 5/10)

Our version of chana masala. A very popular combination which heats up nicely next day should you have any leftovers! Or see our Cook’s Notes for turning it into a soup.

(heat 5/10)

A tangy but creamy South Asian curry using very traditional regional spices and flavours. The sauce is made from coconut and tomato with a hint of lemon. We suggest adding chicken with vegetables and beans, but it is also perfect as a vegan curry, or with fish.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 2/10)

Everyone loves a Dhansak, and our version is healthy as well as tangy and tasty! This Parsee curry is very mild as it stands, so do add those optional chillies. If you enjoy a curry-house Dhansak we give you the recipe for that, too. Also take a look at our Malabar curry recipe which uses these spices but is a slow-cooked dry lamb curry.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 4/10)

A tomato-based curry which works well with beans (legumes), chickpeas, green beans and cauliflower. In fact just about all vegetarian/vegan options! We have even added rhubarb chunks! But also, dare I say, lovely with beef or lamb!

Serves: 4-6

(heat 5/10)

A simple and delicious mixture of rice and pulses. Lovely on its own as a vegan dish or served with other curries. Perfect as the base for kedgeree (see our full recipe for this and other ideas). serves: 4

(heat 1/10)

This is the traditional lentil accompaniment to Indian food. A very simple, non-spicy side-dish, a traditional tarka dahl would have whole spices fried and stirred in at the end, or you can add them at the start as we suggest.

Serves: 6-8

(heat 5/10)

A spicy rub which can be used with any meat, although it’s perfect with a butterflied leg of lamb.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 6/10)

This is a blend that you probably think of as a lamb sausage found in Northern Africa, and the southern parts of Europe which have absorbed some of their culture. We have made it quite spicy with lots of cayenne, but it is the large proportion of caraway seeds which gives it a distinctive flavour.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 6/10)

Our North Indian Meatballs spice mix contains dried mint, which adds a lovely flavour when combined with the fresh coriander - another vital ingredient. If you’re not a fan of too much heat (or cooking for the family), hold back some of the spices and use a plain tomato sauce made with our secret sauce, water, tomato puree and coriander. The flavour of the meatballs will filter through the sauce but the heat won't, making it much more child-friendly. Also a delicious vegetarian option (see our Cook’s Notes).

Serves: 4-6

(heat 1/10)

Practising till we were sick of the sight and taste of them, we have finally perfected our onion bhajis. The trick is to mix the onions with the flour and spices a good hour before cooking. This gives the onions sufficient time to 'sweat' and create enough liquid to bind it together (an attractive image, I know!). Also, flattening them against the bottom of the pan or wok when they first go in helps to hold them together.

Serves: 4-6

(heat 6/10)

The classic mix of North Africa and South Med. We have given you a very traditional cooking method, but this is such a versatile blend that we use it in everything: spicy bolognese, spicy lentil casserole, spicy pizza base. Sometimes you’ll just need a spoonful to really lift a dish! Buy 150g in one of our special storage pots, or pick up the same size refill bag if you have your own container. Visit our cookbook section for other recipe ideas.

(heat 1/10)
