Established in 1876 for export to England, the Sun Brand Madras Curry Powder tin encases a recipe that has been handed down from generation to generation, maintaining the quality that the two founders, Merwanjee and Poonjiajee, created 145+ years ago.

Madras Curry is like many spice mixtures; there are many variations of the ingredients and proportions. Madras, (or Madrasapattinam) India, now called Chennai, in Tamil Nadu, India, is on the Coromandel Coast and is the second largest port in India.

Sun Brand Madras Curry was one of the first Indian curries to be exported.

We carry Sun Brand Madras Curry Powder because many of our curry lovers tell us it is the best out there. Of course, you can make your own...but we like the very fine powder and the ease of having it in our Essential Pantry.

A yellow curry powder with a following.... Try this Indian yellow curry powder brand out and see what people are talking about!

Add curry powder to dishes like chicken, beef, or vegetable curries. Sauté the curry powder in some oil to release its flavors before adding your main ingredients (meat, vegetables, or legumes) and liquids (broth, coconut milk, or tomatoes).

Stir a teaspoon or two of curry powder into soups and stews (like lentil, pumpkin, or potato soup) to enhance the flavor. Add it early in the cooking process for a deeper flavor.

Mix curry powder with yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, and ginger to create a marinade for chicken, lamb, or tofu. The spices infuse into the protein, making it tender and flavorful.

Add curry powder to rice or quinoa while cooking for a fragrant, spiced grain base. You can sauté the curry powder with oil before adding water or broth to cook the rice for a more aromatic result.

Mix curry powder into yogurt, mayonnaise, or sour cream to create a flavorful dressing or dip for salads, roasted veggies, or grilled meats.

Toss veggies (like cauliflower, potatoes, or carrots) in curry powder, olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast them. The curry powder caramelizes with the veggies and gives them a warm, earthy flavor.

Stir a pinch of curry powder into scrambled eggs or an omelet for a twist.

Blend curry powder into dips like hummus, yogurt-based dips, or guacamole for a unique flavor profile.

Curry powder has a big personality, so it's best to start with a small amount and adjust to taste.
