Korma Curry Spice Mix

We offer two distinct styles of spice mixes. Both deliver authentic Indian flavour, but they are designed for different cooking approaches.

1. Restaurant Style Spice Mix

How it works:

The curry sauce is prepared separately using the spice mix. Your chosen protein or vegetables are cooked on their own, then combined and simmered together at the final stage.

Cooking Method:

• Sauce-first approach

• Protein cooked separately

• Combined and simmered to finish

Why this method is used:

This technique gives greater control over flavour balance, texture and consistency. It produces a smoother, more refined finish — similar to what you experience in professional kitchens.

Best suited for:

• Those wanting a restaurant-style finish

• Cooking for guests or special occasions

• Greater control over richness and thickness

• Bulk or commercial cooking

2. Home Style Spice Mix

How it works:

The spices are added directly during the cooking process with onions, ginger-garlic and other base ingredients. Protein or vegetables cook together in one pot.

Cooking Method:

• One-pot cooking

• Everything cooks together

• Traditional household approach

Why this method is used:

It is practical, comforting and efficient. The flavours develop gradually as everything cooks together.

Best suited for:

• Everyday family meals

• Simple, traditional cooking

• Minimal steps

• Quick preparation

In Simple Terms

Restaurant Style = Sauce prepared separately, more structured method.

Home Style = Everything cooked together, traditional household method.

Both styles use the same philosophy of authentic flavour. The difference lies in the cooking technique and the final texture you wish to achieve.

At Chilli Farms, every spice mix is prepared in-house in carefully controlled small batches. We do not outsource this process. It is part of our craft.

1. Sourcing

We source our spices directly from a single trusted supplier in India.

Working with one consistent origin allows us to maintain uniform intensity, aroma and flavour profile across batches. When you cook with our blends, you can expect the same depth and balance every time.

2. Small Batch Production

Each blend is produced in a dedicated spice preparation area within our facility.

We work in small quantities to ensure freshness and strict quality control rather than mass production.

3. Grinding & Blending

Whole spices are carefully measured and blended using a Thermomix to achieve a fine, even consistency. After grinding, the blend is passed through a fine strainer.

This process is repeated multiple times. Any hard fragments or coarse particles are removed until only a smooth, refined powder remains.

4. Hand-Finished Quality

Every batch is hand processed and checked before packing.

The result is a premium spice mix with:

• Consistent aroma
  
• Balanced flavour intensity
  
• Smooth texture
  
• Reliable cooking results
  

5. Dietary Assurance

Each blend is produced in a dedicated spice preparation area within our facility, using dedicated equipment and machinery.

All our spice mixes are:

• Gluten-free
  
• Nut-free
  
• Dairy-free
  
• Onion-free
  
• Garlic-free
  
• MSG-free
  

This controlled process makes them suitable for a wide range of dietary requirements while still delivering authentic depth of flavour.

Why It Matters

Our blends are not factory-produced in bulk. They are carefully crafted, refined and finished by hand.

The time, attention and repeated processing involved in this method reflect the quality and standards we uphold in every pack.

At Chilli Farms, we offer our dishes in five spice levels to cater to different preferences: Mild, Medium, Hot, Extra Hot and Reaper Hot.

Our spice levels are determined using an internal formula based on the amount of chilli powder added per litre. However, other ingredients in our recipes, such as spices, aromatics, and cooking techniques, may influence how you experience the spice.

Please note that our spice level definitions are unique to Chilli Farms and may not align with your personal spice expectations or experiences elsewhere. Additionally, spice tolerance varies for each individual, so we recommend choosing your spice level accordingly.

If you're unsure, we suggest starting at a milder level and adjusting in future orders. Enjoy the heat at your own comfort!
