The Creamy Coconut Aamti Simmering Sauce is an heirloom recipe Chef Tushar learnt in his mum’s kitchen. When they would make it the spices were hand-ground and the coconut milk freshly prepared from trees in their backyard. It is a predominantly Maharashtrian delicacy.

Think slow-simmered tomatoes, turmeric, onion, garlic and red chilli, mixed into coconut milk. ‘Kokum’ is a key ingredient in this, which is a souring agent and also colours the ‘aamti’. A deliciously textured and delicately flavoured curry can be eaten plain or cooked with fish, shrimp, veggies or lentils. Aamti tastes best over steaming hot rice or fermented rice pancakes such as dosa or neer dosa. On cold rainy days, this makes a comforting and hearty soup!

Instructions: Pour the sauce into a thick bottomed pan and switch on heat to low, add sautéed veggies, fried fish or shrimp or cooked lentils and allow the aamti to slowly permeate. Garnish with cilantro and serve over rice. 

Ingredients: Canola oil, Coconut Milk, Onions, Tomatoes, Chili Peppers, Ginger, Garlic, curry leaf, Cumin, Coriander, Turmeric

Goa is a tourist mecca on the Southwest coast of India has its own amazing flavours, with many influences. This is a Portuguese inspired dish, and every Catholic Goan home has its version. Best eaten with rice or crusty bread!

The Portuguese invaded Goa and brought their people, traditions and cuisine to this bountiful coastline. Vindaloo is spicy, reddish-brown in colour and consists mainly of tomatoes, vinegar, garlic and freshly ground spices. Traditionally cooked with pork, this sauce tenderizes the meat as it gently cooks in it but works just as well with any other protein or crispy potatoes, mushrooms, or even mixed veggies and chickpeas. 

Instructions: Add the Indian Pantry Goan Vindaloo sauce to one pound of the protein or vegetables of your choice, coat well and then add half a cup of water and simmer until heated through. The veggies or protein should be parboiled when you add them. Serve over rice or dunk a crusty dinner roll into this tangy goodness!

Ingredients: Canola oil, Onions, Tomatoes, Ginger, Garlic, Tamarind Paste, Distilled Vinegar, cumin, black pepper, mustard seeds, turmeric, chili powder, cinnamon
