Behind the blend

Legend has it that 'Sikandari Raan' was first prepared for Alexander the Great's wedding feast, when he married Roxanne — daughter of a king of the Hindu Kush that Alexander (Sikandar, as he was known in India) had just conquered. It was served again at the banquet celebrating his legendary friendship with King Paurava of Takshila. Ever since, to share raan has been a symbol of friendship and binding ties.

My absolute favourite. The lamb just falls off the bone. Delicious!

Questions, answered

I've never cooked Indian food — is this actually easy?

Yes. Every tin comes with an authentic Mrs Balbir Singh recipe card that walks you through it step by step. Thousands of first-time cooks have made restaurant-quality curries with it — no experience needed.

I already cook Indian food — is this still for me?

Absolutely — you're exactly who we make these for. If you already cook, you know great Indian food lives and dies by the spices: the highest grade ones, freshly toasted, ground and balanced in the correct proportions. That's the slow, exacting part — and it's the part we've done for you, every blend made to Mrs Balbir Singh's original recipes. You get the depth you'd spend hours building, in minutes, with the same result every time — then season and make it your own, exactly as you would.

Is it very spicy?

It's about flavour, not heat. Butter Chicken is rich and mild, and the recipe card lets you dial the chilli up or down to taste. Indian food is defined by region and balance, not a heat scale.

I usually order this from the takeaway — how is this different?

It's the real thing, made properly at home: freshly roasted, ground and blended spices, with no jars, no base gravy and no shortcuts. Most people tell us it's better than their Friday takeaway.

Do I need a cupboard full of other spices?

No. One tin replaces the 10–20 spices you'd otherwise buy. Add a few fresh ingredients from the recipe card and you're done.

How many servings does a tin make, and how should I store it?

Each tin makes 12+ servings. Store it closed in a cool, dark place, and check the best-before date on the tin base.

Great grills aren't ordered. They're made.

  1. Marinate

  2. Grill or Roast

  3. Rest & Serve

Then comes the best part — the smoky aroma pulling everyone to the table, the “this is better than our local”, the plates picked clean. Whether it's a weeknight grill, a slow roasted leg of lamb or a summer barbecue, these are the mixed grills and Sunday lunches they'll ask you to make again… and again.

One flat note — or the whole symphony?

The takeaway, jar and microwave meal hit the same flat note — chilli, tomato or cream. Real Indian food is highly nuanced, needing a specific blend and method for every dish.
