Our Jalfrezi Spice Blend contains a perfect combination of 12 sensational spices. It is a medium to hot curry powder, with an incredibly powerful flavour. It can be used to create the authentic Indian dish Jalfrezi.
The dish originates from the Chittagong hills in West Bengal, Bangladesh, during the time that Anglo-Indians ruled. Due to the heat and the lack of refrigeration, leftover food needed to be consumed quickly. Jalfrezi was the delicious result of using up cooked meats and vegetables. The tribe Raj-Mogs would stir-fry the leftovers with spices and serve with rice and fresh onion salad.
Jalfrezi dishes are known for their quick and straightforward preparation – a delicious meal can be prepared in a relatively short amount of time! It’s also great for its versatility, with this spice blend easily adapted to various dietary needs. You can add it to proteins such as chicken, beef and lamb, or switch it up with tofu and vegetarian options.
Jalfrezi dishes even have various regional and cultural adaptations. For example, in the UK, a popular variation known as “Balti Jalfrezi” combines the flavours of this curry powder with the cooking style of Balti cuisine.
Use this spice mix to jazz up your leftover curry or simply use to flavour stir-fries! Follow our recipe here to make Chicken Jalfrezi or follow the instructions on the back of the pouch. Alternatively why not try this Aloo Tikki recipe.

This review is for all the seasonings I have purchased with this one. You cannot got wrong with these spice ‘blends’. My go to choice when a curry night grabs me (at least twice a week). Can be used sparingly, as recommended) but I put extra in for a real blast. Excellent packaging, looking nice lined up along the spice shelf in my house. Keep up the fabulous blends.

If anyone says to you can you name a brilliant curry powder this is it!!! I came across seasoned p’s when i made a recipe from one of those food boxes. It was so good i asked them to share the supplier. In fact it was a proprietry mix but when I contacted Seasoned they were so helpful and it turned out it was this one a bit watered down. Anyway long story short this blend makes any dish brilliant! get some!
