Goan Curry Powder

Goan Curry Powder is a mildly spiced blend, combining delicate citrusy coriander, earthy turmeric and cumin with warming pepper, cardamom and cloves and a kick of Kashmiri chilli to leave a lasting warmth. This versatile blend can be made a number of ways - to make a classic Goan fish or prawn curry, to marinade meat, fish or vegetables or even just to add a touch of spice to soup or eggs. 

Xacuti Spice Mix

Xacuti, pronounced “sha-kuti”, is a classic Goan curry whose origins predate Goa’s Portuguese colonisation. Xacuti is traditionally made by creating a paste of roasted freshly grated coconut, onion and a wide variety of spices, which give it a distinctive and intense taste.

Our Xacuti Spice Mix is an aromatic blend of 15 spices, all of which have been roasted separately to bring out their unique flavour and aroma. From earthy seeds like fenugreek and cumin to warm sweet spices like nutmeg and star anise, this medium spicy versatile blend will add rich, deep flavour to any dish. Make a classic chicken Xacuti curry, marinade meat or vegetables, or even just add a touch of spice to stir fried vegetables. 

Vindaloo Spice Mix

Outside of India, Vindaloo (more authentically known as Vindalho) is extremely misunderstood. It has been made popular in the UK by curry houses which serve a blisteringly spicy curry with no resemblance to the real Goan dish. Originally known as “carne de vinha d’alhos”, meaning meat cooked in wine and garlic, Vindalho travelled from Portugal to Goa in the 16th century and the wine was replaced with Goan vinegar.

Our Vindaloo Spice Mix is fiery but not too hot. Pungent with Kashmiri chillies and warming spices like pepper, cinnamon and cloves, this is the perfect blend to make a deeply flavoured, rich meaty curry or as a marinade for a chicken or even vegetables.
