Maya Kaimal Fresh Indian Sauces - Tikka Masala (15 ounce) Review

Maya Kaimal Fresh Indian Sauces - Tikka Masala (15 ounce)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have just received the Vindaloo product. I have not used it yet but the whole transaction so far is very disappointing. The web page is very misleading in that it leads you to believe that you are getting a package of three sauces (see picture and product presentation) when in fact you get only one, and I don't remember being asked which one I want when placing the order. Further, the web site says that the Vindaloo is not available, but in fact it's the one I received. The container has a limit date at the bottom which is completely unreadable, so I don't know how long it's safe to keep it. And finally, the shipping charge is absolutely ridiculous and again badly explained, so I ended up paying almost $20 for a $6 product. Not a good deal.

This is a rich and flavorful curry paste, with lots of subtle undertones. Although it is listed as "hot", it is actually fairly mild in flavor, but with an abundance of spice. This is a great curry to use when you don't have time to grind and mix your own spices.

House of Tsang Bangkok Peanut Sauce, 11.5-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 6) Review

House of Tsang Bangkok Peanut Sauce, 11.5-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 6)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have used this for quite a few years and LOVE this sauce. It ain't cheap, but it is SOOOOOOOO tasty! Simple recipe for tonight:
6-10 boneless skinless chicken breasts and 2 bottles of this sauce.
Pour sauce over breasts in a 9x13 or other baking dish. Cover, bake at 350 degrees for one hour and you're set. We serve this with rice and broccoli and use the sauce as a "gravy" on the whole plate of food.
The sauce is a smooth, spicy peanut sauce with a sesame undertone that is just fabulous. It is the best one we've tried, and you could add a little water or coconut milk, but it is about the "heat" of medium salsa, not super hot. You're gonna love it!

Depends on what you are looking for ... Here are the actual ingredients listed on the package: "Liquid from coconut blossm [blossom], crystal white sugar, malt sugar."

In Thai recipes as well as recipes throughout Southeast Asia, palm sugar is used as a natural sweetener. Our palm sugar is the best you can find anywhere, as we import from a premium producer in western Thailand, where the natural sap is collected from cut sugar palms and boiled until a nice sticky sugar remains. The natural sugar is poured directly into little cakes and packaged for easy use (see photos). It can be also eaten as candy. Consistency is firm but slightly soft, making it more simple to use than the inferior rock hard palm sugar some are selling. You get 8 small cakes, simply shave off what you need with a knife, and it dissolves nicely in the cooking process. Use with curries, gourmet dishes, sauces, and various desserts. Product of Thailand. Ingredients: 97% pure palm sugar, 3% refined malt sugar.

Discovered this when our children brought it home the first time from Chiang Mai, Thailand. It is sweet with the wonderful Thai chili peppers infused into the sauce. Not "screaming" hot, but just right for those who like a bit of a "kick" to their sauces. Highly recommend for chicken. Also excellent on pork.

The most delicious sauce from Thailand. Mae Pranom is the true original brand known to all Thai people and offered in corner stores & vendor carts throughout the country. Mae Pranom dipping sauce is more robust and has slightly higher chile heat than Mae Ploy brand (Mae Ploy brand is more familiar outside of Thailand due to marketing). Especially delicious as a dipping sauce for any kind of chicken, but also goes well with shrimp, fish cake, spring roll, sausage etc. We love this sauce and highly recommend it. Packed in a beautiful glass bottle with attractive label, Mae Pranom is a very large producer employing the highest quality standard. Product of Thailand.

Mae Ploy Thai Yellow Curry Paste - 14 oz jar Review

Mae Ploy Thai Yellow Curry Paste - 14 oz jar
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
New to Thai cuisine, I asked to try a milder curry, my tastes running to a maximum of medium heat. Yellow curry was recommended, and the coconut milk based Thai version was a treat with both seafood and chicken-something I've had occasion to order again and again.
So when trying to re-create the taste sensations above, I was less than thrilled at the idea of grinding individual spices, purchasing a number of pricey ingredients with limited shelf life and narrow applications.
I did some research and found that many Thai housewives rely on the time and labor savings of using high quality curry pastes as the basis for soups, curries and more. Mae Ploy was one of the brands repeatly mentioned as high quality and fresh tasting.
This brand comes in a handful of flavors and heat levels, with the Yellow Curry Paste being the first I was eager to try. It has a shelf life of 2 years, and the large plastic pouch also keeps very well nestled in its own colorful tub in the refrigerator.
The flavors of lemon grass, shallot, gingery galanga, kaffir lime peel, warm spices and red chili are very well balanced. This is the only Mae Ploy Curry paste without shrimp paste, making it vegan-suitable as well as delicious with shellfish, fish or fowl.
I like to snip off one corner of the clear packet, then squeeze out just the amount I need-anywhere from 1/2 teaspoon to 2 Tablespoons, depending on the recipe. This helps to maintain freshness and flavor and avoid waste.
For Thai curry, I will combine the Yellow Curry Paste with a small amount of chicken broth, then add 3/4 Cup more broth per person, plus a can of coconut milk to mellow and round the flavor. A cup or two of chunked seafood or chicken, plus cubed potatoes and onion-simmered together for about 30 minutes- makes a very satisfying dish to serve with either traditional sticky rice or more the more occidental long grain variety.
Mae Ploy's Thai Yellow Curry is also delicious with just a bit added to your favorite dip, salad dressing, or try a teaspoonful combined with 1 cup of sour cream or plain yogurt 'painted' over your favorite fish fillets and baked just until cooked through, (about 15-20 minutes at 325).
The fine quality of this product has encouraged me to order another flavorful curry paste-also excellent-and I would highly recommend this product for those wishing to re-create favorite restaurant fare at a reasonal price, without tedious preparation.

Also known as galanga. A very good substitute for fresh galangal, you can place this product in lukewarm water to reconstitute, then use as desired. Each 2 oz package is made from approx 16 oz fresh galangal (1 lb) so this is a great deal, as any market that happens to offer fresh galangal usually charges $7.95 or more per lb. We have seen specialty spice stores selling dried galangal for $6.50 per ounce! Ours is always new stock, imported from Thailand and produced by the finest spice manufacturer Hand Brand.

Patak's Tikka Masala Curry Cooking Sauce, Medium, 15-Ounce Glass Jars (Pack of 6) Review

Patak's Tikka Masala Curry Cooking Sauce, Medium, 15-Ounce Glass Jars (Pack of 6)
Average Reviews:

Both my husband and I love Indian food and though I enjoy cooking from scratch, there are times when my busy schedule gets in the way of cooking an entire Indian meal from scratch. A friend recommended the Patak sauces and I have tried a couple of them. This Tikka Masala sauce is quite good, BUT there is some tweaking involved. Like another reviewer mentioned, there is a strong vinegary taste and too much of a tomato taste to the sauce by itself. However, a couple of tweaks by way of adding extra ingredients will improve this taste.
I added a couple of tablespoonfuls of yoghurt to the mix as it is simmering, and either a tablespoonful of ghee (clarified butter) or butter/margarine will also enhance the flavor and minimize the strong vinegary taste. Also, the spice factor is described as medium on the label, but both my husband and I found it to be quite mild (this is subjective and will vary from one taste bud to another). I added some chili powder and that added some extra kick and spiciness to the dish.
This sauce can be used with chicken or shrimp, and also veggies such as green peas, potatoes, mushrooms etc. I serve it with raita (I use yoghurt,cucumber and tomatoes) and naan/chapati/rice. It tastes yummy and makes for a quick fix Indian meal without too much fuss!

Butter chicken is one of my favorite Indian dishes. This little spice pouch greatly exceeded my expectations by making it easy to make a very flavorful rendition of it using only one pot.
1 cup of water, 3 tablespoons butter (I used Smart Balance and it came out great), a pound of chicken (the bagged frozen Tyson grilled chicken strips work great) and 20 minutes and you have a dish that closely approximates the restaurant version. I added some slices of Vidalia onion at the very end so they'd stay crunchy.
Great product, great value. [...]

i just went into my local grocery store because they USED to carry this stuff-only to see they no longer do. Im going to let a whole bunch of Fourth of July people down because word quickly spread that I was to make my chicken Khorma and I was getting excited calls...I can no longer find the star ingredient of this simple, delicious and different dish, but Ive found it here on Amazon and I will be buying it for when I get a hankerin'. It might interest you to know that my toughest critics-two teenaged boys-really love it served over jasmine rice. And if they like it, then you know it's not too spicey or too different for your family.

Pataks Korma Curry Cooking Sauce 15oz (Rich Cream & Coconut) Review

Pataks Korma Curry Cooking Sauce 15oz (Rich Cream and Coconut)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am one who loves very strong flavors and a lot of spice in my food. With that in mind, This sauce was incredibly rich tasting. Very creamy, with a distinctive taste of coconut. It's not the same as taking a mouthfull of fresh coconut or drinking coconut milk, but you can discern the sweet coconut flavor. I made Chicken and shrimp Korma last night, using extremely thin sliced chicken breast (the kind of cut most oriental places put in their moo goo pai pan and other chicken dishes) The shrimp was 31-40 count. I added some fresh steamed veggies to the mix as well, and put it on a bed of Basmati rice. I heated the sauce, dumped it over top, and served it family style.
I thought the combination of the sauce with chicken, shrimp, AND veggies all worked, so its a versatile sauce. I think it might go well with just about any meat or veggie option. It did wear on my towards the end of the dish, however, due to the richness. I would have prefered a bit stronger garam masala flavor, so I compensated and added a little into the sauce. I won't be making this all the time, but every once and a while its a refreshing taste in indian cooking. I still think I'll stick to Patak's vindaloo paste. That's become a staple in my house when I'm not in the mood to make curry pastes from scratch.
