{"title":"Everyday Curry Powder","description":"\u003cp\u003eEveryday curry powder covers the unroasted blends used for daily cooking. In Sri Lanka, unroasted curry powder, often simply called thuna paha, is lighter in colour and flavour than the roasted kind and goes into vegetable curries, dhal, white curries and potato dishes. The range also includes meat and fish curry blends, herbal curry powders, sarakku powder from the Tamil tradition, and Sri Lankan mixed spices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose unroasted curry powder for vegetables, lentils and white curries made with coconut milk, and a meat or fish curry powder when you want a blend balanced for those dishes, often hotter and redder. Compared with roasted curry powder, everyday blends are gentler and let the vegetables taste of themselves. For the British style blend, see Madras curry powder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEveryday curry powder does not need long frying, so add it with the onions or straight into the pot with coconut milk for a white curry. Toasting a spoonful in a dry pan for thirty seconds brings up the aroma if a pack has been open a while. Keep it in an airtight jar. For Sri Lankan dhal curry, pair it with masoor dal, and browse all our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/curry-powders\"\u003ecurry powders\u003c\/a\u003e, including Jaffna curry powder.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"aachi-curry-masala-hot-100g","title":"Aachi Curry Masala Hot 100g","description":"\u003cp\u003eAachi Curry Masala (Hot) is an all-purpose curry powder for everyday Indian cooking, labelled hot on the front of the pack.
