Say you’re suddenly craving a Chettinad curry.

You go to google and look up a recipe.

Then you realise that for the curry paste recipe, you would require bay leaf, nutmeg, green cardamom, clove, fennel, pepper, cinnamon, stone flower and red chilly.

Even if you have all of that, it would then require you to use these in certain proportions to obtain the most authentic Chettinad curry.

Sounds like too much work, right?

What if you were able to cut out all that prep and planning time and have a handy aid in your pantry which will just require you to add your vegetables, lentils, tofu, tempeh or mock meat to it and get a genuinely tasty dish in under fifteen minutes?!


Currygram has made this possible with their range of vegan curry pastes and gravies that you can use to make flavourful meals right in your own kitchen.

The parent company of Currygram is Conscious Food -a well-known name in the organic kitchen staples category.

Keeping the same values of their parent company intact, these curry pastes and gravies by Currygram are all clean label, meaning they utilise only natural ingredients. They also add small amounts of locally produced coconut, sunflower and sesame oil for flavour.

The best part is that they are made with fresh ingredients and spices, without any preservatives or artificial flavouring and have a shelf life of one year. This is only possible due to a special kind of packaging called retort packaging.

But there’s a lot more you can do with these curry mixes besides the obvious gravy dish. These curry pastes and gravies are a great way to bring some variety to your typical daily meals.

Here are 5 of Currygram’s vegan ready to cook pastes that you can stock in your kitchen and some creative ideas of how you can make the most of them:

1. MAKHANI GRAVY 

Currygram’s Makhani gravy is the quintessential flavour that you can keep for those vegetable and dal makhanwala hankerings.

Made with tomatoes and onions, this vegan gravy gets its creaminess from cashews and flavouring from cardamom, clove, cinnamon and kasoori methi. It makes a perfectly vegan buttery base for your dish and is also free from any preservatives, artificial flavours or artificial colours.

What to add it to: Add it to cooked kidney beans and black urad dal to turn it into a quick dal makhani, or better yet add chopped vegetables of your choice to make a vegetable makanwala. You can also use Currygram’s Makhani Gravy to make specific vegetable dishes like Mushroom Masala or Green Peas Tofu Masala.

What to add it to: Currygram’s Bhuna Masala Gravy is one of those pantry staples that can be quickly adapted to whatever you have in hand.

4. UDUPI SAMBAR MASALA

Currygram’s Udupi Samhar Masala will give your meal the distinctive south Indian flavouring encompassing some earthy spice, sourness and a hint of sweetness.

This masala paste is made with lentils like split chickpeas and black gram along with spices like red chilli, fenugreek and coriander. Tamarind and tomato bring the sourness to this vegan paste while drumstick is also added for the authentic experience. No preservatives or artificial flavours go into this paste.

What to add it to: Add Currygram’s Udupi Sambar Masala paste to sauteed vegetables for an instant sambhar or cook it with veggies and rice for a bisibele bhaat. It also works well as thicker gravy for typical vegetables used in south Indian cuisine like carrots, beans, pumpkin or any of the gourds.

5. CHETTINAD MASALA

Currygram’s Chettinad Masala finds its origins in Tamil Nadu where the spicy and flavourful Chettinad cuisine originates.

The masala is made with the archetypical gravy ingredients i.e. tomato, onion, ginger, garlic and chilli, but it comes with a well balanced mix of precisely roasted and ground whole spices that give it its authentic flavour. Over 9 kinds of spices go into this Chettinad masala paste which is completely vegan.

What to add it to: Add Currygram’s Chettinad masala paste to vegetables, tofu or tempeh as gravies if you want a quick appetising meal. It can also very easily be used as marinade for a barbeque or as a base to make Chettinad Biryani. And if you still want more out of it, add it to wheat flour to make Chettinad Kulchas.
