Bringing that flavour of South India to your kitchen.
Mumbai Nights is a yellow masala powder blending 16 different herbs and spices to form a flavour profile so delicate and flavourful you’ll think you’ve been transported to the sub-continent.
This flavourful spice is colourful, delicate, fragrant, warm, and brings a very light heat that helps add complexity and round out the flavours of the dish it is added to.
Masala is thought to have originated in Northern India and some have traced its first use to the Mongol Empire in the 13th century. The number of Garam Masala variations is endless and each region in India has its own version which accompanies the cuisine and spices grown in that climate.
As Mumbai Nights contains a mixture of 16 different herbs spices it typically gives a fragrant, earthy, and warm flavour to recipes, while the cinnamon, cloves also add sweet notes, and the fenugreek gives it its distinct curry like aroma. Adding a rich depth and beautiful flavour to whatever dish it touches.
The Most traditional ways to use Mumbai Nights are as a seasoning for savoury dishes like curries, stews, soups, dals, and marinades, great in a pilaf, biryani, and tandoori.
If you're looking to make a great marinade for your chicken, combine 1 tablespoon of Mumbai Nights with 250g natural yoghurt and a pinch of salt, marinate the chicken for a minimum of 2 hours or overnight and then cook on high heat for that Tandoor effect - Delicious.
