So, @eatspicebox now does Indian DIY kits! This is a big “dahl” 🥘 {ad – press sample}
A perfect little box for a weekend takeaway, the team have put together a box with all the ingredients you need to recreate their curries at home as well as a little card with step by step instructions 🥰
You can either grab the Korma or Tikka Masala kit. I went for the Korma because I’ve had it before in their restaurant and loved it! 😍
We Brits think of korma as mild, sweet and creamy but traditional korma, with Mogul influence, refers to a range of gravies and varying heat levels, and the dish differs across India 🇮🇳
The box comfortably feeds 4-6 people. Here’s what you get:
🍚 300g organic Basmati rice
🍠 1 sweet potato
🍄 200g of mushrooms
🌱 2 x 400g tins of organic cannellini beans
🌱 150g of green beans
🥬 1 bunch of spinach
🌱 1 bunch of coriander
🍋 1 lemon
🌱 4 SpiceBox samosas
🌱 4 SpiceBox pea kachori
🥘 SpiceBox korma sauce
🥘 SpiceBox tarka dhal
🌱 2 SpiceBox naans
🌱 Toasted cashews
🌱 Date & tamarind chutney
💰 £45
💭 The standout for me was the thick, flavoursome dahl 🤤 I was also really impressed by how fluffy the rice came out using a technique I’ve not used before! Only feedback is that there was perhaps too much veg, I prefer my korma a bit saucer. I’d personally lose the green beans but otherwise, delicious!
