from 3144 reviewsVery easy instructions to follow and result was delicious. Look forward to trying some of the other spice mixes.
Fantastic spice kits, tastes are amazing, the lamb chops and leg of lamb roast are a taste sensation. Recipes easy to follow, can’t wait for next meal.
So far I have used the Garam Masala and the quality is obvious, made a lightly spiced lentil soup and the delicate blend was simply sublime !
Ordinarily I wouldn’t have touched a lentil and spinach curry but this was truly delicious. I honestly can’t wait for the next meet free Thursday!
This is up there with the best butter chicken I’ve eaten at an authentic restaurant. I’ve recommended these spice blends to everyone I speak to. Delicious!!
I have seen many spices advertised but Mrs Singh spices are at another level and the taste is fantastic. I used the menu enclosed with my two pack of spices is the best butter chicken meal I have made. Thank you Mrs Singh.
I made the Mughlai karma curry at the weekend but using diced lamb and adding some leftover Jersey Royals and some button mushrooms. Curry was great and wished I'd made double! I also used the Rogan Josh zinc it wS excellent and different to the Mughlai. I dud add extra chilli as we like a hot curry. Looking forward to trying the others.
Another great spice rub from Mrs Balbir! I like the tandoori rub and wondered how similar this would be. It is different and is great with lamb - will definitely purchase again!
Love this Butter Chicken spice blend - its an easy to follow recipe and the end dish is as good if not better than any Butter Chicken you would get from you local takeaway. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mrs Balbirsingh spices to anyone.
Easy to follow recipes and the end results are seriously good. Being a lover of hot curries I follow their suggestion and add some chopped green chillies along with the ginger and garlic paste. Fantastic!!
One of the best keemas I have ever tasted and ta includes the ones I tried in Delhi
I was a bit sceptical at the thought of spending some of my pension on this spice package. I'm not sceptical anymore! It's brilliant. I'm not even a good cook but the first dish I tried (Whole Tandoori Chicken) was really tasty. Very authentic flavours and easy to follow recipe cards. Would highly recommend.
Sublime butter chicken curry made easier with the great recipe cards 👍
Ordered these and made a chicken korma.Tasted delicious and very easy recipes

SHAHI CHICKEN MASALA
According to food historians around the world, Mrs Balbir Singh’s Shahi Chicken Masala is the dish that the world famous Chicken Tikka Masala originates from. It’s a little more creamy and indulgent, with subtle layers and a real depth of flavour. This should be no surprise as it’s roots lie in the royal kitchens of the Mogul Emperors. A unique, slightly decadent and moreish curry.
AMRITSARI CHANA MASALA
Also known as chole masala, this is one of Punjab’s true soul foods. There are of course many versions of chickpea curries across India, but this sumptuous version hails from the city of Amritsar, home to the beautiful Golden Temple. It is a signature dish of the region which is commonly served with the fluffy deep-fried leavened bread, Bhatura. This was a regular on the Sunday lunch menu at Mrs Balbir Singh’s home.
KASHMIRI ROGAN JOSH
This aromatic lamb curry is a signature dish of Kashmiri cuisine, and is one of the main dishes in the famous multi-course meal, wazwan. Kashmir is a place where one sees nature at its height, a soul-stirring spectacle which will linger in one’s mind forever. The cuisine is a magnificent blending of the culinary arts of the Moghuls and the Kashmiris.
