Surinaamse Masala

Spices for Surinaams Dishes

Surinaamse masala carries the flavours of the Hindustani diaspora in Suriname and the Netherlands, blending Indian spice traditions with local taste.

The result is tuned for the dishes the community actually cooks, from an everyday roti curry to masala chicken, fish and bara.

A good Surinaamse blend takes the guesswork out of seasoning these dishes, so the flavour lands the way it should without you measuring a dozen spices each time.

Complete the meal around your masala. Add a spoon of fiery Madame Jeanette chutney, deepen the base with single spices from our whole and ground spice range, and serve over hot white rice.

For the roti itself, keep soft-roti atta in the cupboard.
