Tasty Gluten Free Curry Kits

Great kits that are very flexible and make lovely Curries. A little bit expensive but really well put together. Had an issue last summer when the heatwave melted the coconut in a couple of the kits, customer service was excellent.

Bags and bags of punchy flavours

Meticulously well thought out and prepared spice packs - full of flavour, and even give guidance on how to achieve the right level of chilli heat for you palate. The Sri Lankan curry in particular is knockout. Really, really recommend these kits and am looking forward to trying out more of the range.

Love, love, love........

Love, love, love these curry blends. I think they're good value for money, I've had more expensive and not as good products from a independent retailer. Not one of the packs have been disappointing and when they say they serve 3, it would be 3 generous portions, it feeds 5 of us. So easy to follow and don't take hours to prepare. Other good point, even though it's a subscription, you can stop and start it as and when you want packs sent out. Highly recommend, in fact, I have recommended to many people.

Thanks again :)

First time subscriber

Ordered a 6 pack, 5 of my choice and 1 surprise one, surprise was I got a Piri Piri marinade kit not a sauce kit. Otherwise all good

Hi Sean, thank you for your feedback. When choosing a surprise me, it is randomly selected from all the kits that we make so that you should have something different each time. If you do have a preference such as a sauce and not a marinade, please leave a note in the comments section and we will do our best to accommodate you :)

Super slow delivery. Super poor customer service

Ordered almost 2 weeks ago, still no delivery. Told 4 days ago that it had been sent. Still no delivery. Absolutely shocking service. Web site claims that they deliver within 3 working days, don’t believe it. Whether the kits are good or not, I’ll never order again. Really disappointing.

Hi Fiona, I'm sorry to hear about your experience. I can see that your order was sent out and delivered to your neighbour (as no-one was in at the time) and it was not picked up. This information was provided on the tracking information you were sent via email. We are can add specific delivery instructions if customers are happy to leave the order in a safe space, but there was none provided on this occasion. In future, I would recommend checking the tracking information, as this will let you know when a parcel has been delivered to a neighbour.

Easy to use, fab results

Great easy to follow instructions, listing what else needed and how to use kit.
Fresh spices and visible best before date but also reminder that kits can be frozen.
Other than the ginger everything that needs to be frozen, freezes well for future use.
Great compliments from others on finished dishes

Convenient kits and clear recipes that result in tasty meals! I’m avoiding ultra processed foods so these kits are a perfect alternative to ready meal curries or jar sauces - no upfs in them!
