About this item

• TIKKA CURRY MASALA — 17-INGREDIENT SPICE BLEND SEASONING: Pride of India’s authentic Indian curry seasoning is crafted from 17 real ingredients, including turmeric, coriander, red chilli, cumin, mustard, black pepper, bay leaf, fennel, ginger, onion, garlic, cardamom, cinnamon, clove, mace, and star anise. This balanced blend delivers the rich, layered flavor of genuine tikka curry. Responsibly sourced and hygienically processed, it brings consistent taste and quality to every jar. The dual-sifter jar lets you shake or spoon the perfect amount for quick meals or slow, from-scratch curry cooking.
• VERSATILE FOR CHICKEN, TOFU, VEGETABLES & MORE : This 17-spice blend is designed to work across a wide range of cooking styles: use it in chicken tikka masala and other chicken curries, paneer tikka masala for a vegetarian main, grilled or roasted vegetables, hearty gravies, and marinades for meat, poultry, or plant-based proteins. It also pairs naturally with kebabs, rice, and naan as part of a complete Indian-inspired meal. One jar supports multiple dishes across the week, making it a flexible pantry staple for home cooks who want variety without buying a different spice blend for every recipe.
• MEDIUM HEAT, BALANCED FLAVOR PROFILE : Positioned as a medium-heat blend, this masala is built for warmth and complexity rather than overwhelming spice, making it approachable for a range of household preferences. Expect a layered, aromatic profile from the 16-spice combination rather than a one-note heat hit — the goal is a well-rounded curry flavor with characteristic Indian spice warmth. As with any dry spice blend, you can adjust the amount used to bring the final dish closer to your own preferred intensity, whether you're cooking for spice lovers or a more heat-sensitive table.
• SIMPLE TO USE, BEGINNER-FRIENDLY PREPARATION : Getting started is straightforward: as a general starting point, stir a spoonful of the blend into hot oil, ghee, or a curry base to bloom the spices before adding your protein or vegetables, then taste and add more to build depth as the dish cooks. Because it's a dry seasoning rather than a fixed-ratio paste, you can scale it up for larger batches or dial it back for a milder result — adjust gradually and taste as you go, which makes this an easy entry point for first-time tikka masala cooks as well as experienced home chefs.
• CLEAN LABEL YOU CAN TRUST: GLUTEN FREE, VEGAN & VEGETARIAN : This Tikka Curry Masala is formulated to be gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian, giving households with dietary restrictions or plant-based preferences a seasoning they can use with confidence across multiple recipes. Ingredient transparency is central to how Pride of India builds this blend, so you know you're adding a genuine 17-spice mix to your cooking rather than a filler-heavy shortcut. This clean-label approach is designed for cooks who read labels carefully and want a spice blend that fits into a broader set of dietary needs at the table.
• THE PRIDE OF INDIA QUALITY : Pride of India sources from authentic origins and prioritizes ingredient quality over cutting costs, choosing to invest in better raw spices because superior ingredients lead to a more genuine, more consistent final result. The brand's approach centers on responsible sourcing and hygienic processing practices, reflecting a small-batch mindset rather than a mass-commodity one. The 7 oz dual-sifter jar is also designed with everyday usability and freshness in mind, so the quality built into the blend is preserved from the moment it's packed to the moment it reaches your spice rack.
• SEASONING SPICE, NOT A PASTE OR SAUCE : Unlike ready-to-use pastes or sauces, this is a dry seasoning spice blend, which means you control the consistency, thickness, and final texture of your dish rather than starting from a fixed, pre-made base. This format is often preferred by cooks who want to build their own gravy or marinade from scratch, control salt and liquid content, or simply prefer the shelf stability and long usability window of a dry spice jar over an opened paste or sauce container. If you're comparing tikka masala seasoning, paste, and sauce formats, this jar is built specifically for the seasoning category.
