Description

Spice Zen’s Curry Powder - Medium is a beautifully balanced, handcrafted masala inspired by the rich culinary heritage of Indian home cooking while celebrating its place as a global pantry essential. Curry powder, as the world knows it, began during the British colonial era when travellers sought a way to recreate the essence of Indian masala at home.

Our version returns to authenticity: each spice is individually hand-roasted and stone-milled at our certified organic, gluten-free Sydney facility, capturing the depth, warmth and fragrance that only small-batch handcrafted spice blend can offer. Open the amber jar and you’ll immediately smell the toasty, freshly milled aroma of coriander, cumin, fenugreek, fennel and warming sweet spices.

Curry powder-medium is the most universally cooked spice blend worldwide. From vegetable curry and home-style chicken curry to Singapore noodles, curried mince, pumpkin soup and curried egg salad, this blend adapts beautifully. You can easily adjust the heat- use less spice blend or mellow with coconut milk, tomatoes or yoghurt. Simply use a bit more of spice or add chilli powder to make it hotter. Its balance of savoury, sweet and warming spices also makes it perfect for modern fusion bowls, roasted vegetables, dips, sandwich fillings and creamy curried pasta.

Spice Zen also offers Madras Curry Powder (hotter and more robust) and Chilli-Free Curry Powder (nightshade-free for sensitive diets).
