This is Indian food, made by Indians, for everyone.
We're that confident. If your first box isn't everything we promised, reach out and our team will take care of you.

Yes! We use real ingredients that we source from the parts of India where they are grown. We add zero preservatives or flavors of any kind. Because of our unique freeze-drying process, our meals are able to maintain their nutritional value and don't need preservatives to be shelf-stable. They also allow us to make sure our meals have minimal salt, lending to a low and reasonable sodium content.
Every dish is labeled with a spice level, ranging from mild to authentically fiery. Most sit at a comfortable medium — flavorful, not punishing.
Our freeze-dried meals are shelf-stable for 6-8 months from the date of manufacturing. We ensure a minimum of 6 weeks of shelf-life at the time of delivery. Each pouch includes a best-before date for easy reference. No fridge or freezer required!
