Indus Garam Masala 300g

Good value for money and tastes yummy. Easy to store and use.

This we add to most curries and spicy dishes - a store cupboard essential. It is a good price and size and recommended.

As described.

I bought this mainly because of the size and price, and it’s actually turned out to be a solid everyday garam masala. You get a big 300g pack which lasts ages, especially if you cook curries regularly. The flavour is what you’d expect, nice and warm with a mix of spices like cumin, coriander, cinnamon and cardamom . It’s not overly strong or spicy, which I actually prefer as it blends well into dishes rather than overpowering everything. Works well in curries, rice and even just sprinkled into sauces at the end. The powder is quite fine and easy to cook with, and the resealable pack is handy for keeping it fresh. Like most pre-ground spice mixes, it’s probably not as intense as making your own from whole spices, but for convenience it does the job really well. That’s pretty standard with garam masala anyway as the flavour can vary depending on the blend . If I had to say anything negative, it’s more of a mild blend rather than a strong punchy one, so you might need to use a bit more if you like bold flavours. But for everyday cooking, that actually makes it quite versatile. Overall, really good value and a reliable staple to have in the cupboard. Would definitely buy again.
