2-An Indian Curry Christmas!
Sorry this item is currently out of stock

A familiar Christmas meal with some unique Indian twists...


Christmas is all about tradition, right? But sometimes tradition can get a little bit dull so here at The Spicery we’ve carefully put together a much more exciting seasonal feast, containing all the usual elements of the traditional Christmas lunch but with an Indian overhaul.

To begin, there’s a jazzed up prawn cocktail served with poppadoms and a marie rose raita. Next on the menu is a stunning centrepiece of tandoori turkey with crispy masala potatoes, balti gravy and cranberry chutney.

Finally, after a nap on the sofa and the Queen’s speech, for dessert we’ve got Grandma’s favourite, a (boozy) trifle flavoured with cardamon and saffron topped with fragrant rose petals and some rather bling gold leaf!

This box was absolutely amazing. We actually used it for our Christmas day meal and it was the best one we've ever had. We've been using the Spicery for 5 years and we can't recommend it highly enough!

Wonderful! Thanks for your great feedback and we're so happy to hear that it was the best Christmas day meal you've ever had- thanks for sharing and happy spicing!

We loved this! We had it for New Year’s Day instead of Christmas Day. Absolutely delicious!

YUM this looks like a marvellous meal to bring in the New Year, the trifle looks beautiful!

Flavorful, not too hot, not too complex to make - amazing. We added some chana masala, Saag paneer and curried eggplant.

Wow this is a truly marvellous meal- nice work!

The tastiest Prawn Cocktail I've ever had since the 1970's! What a fabulous starter.

It's great to hear how much you enjoyed this 'retro' starter, with an Indian twist!

Super easy to prepare with outstanding results. All the family (11yrs +) enjoyed this very special New Years Eve meal.

It certainly all looks delicious, Mark - we are so pleased to hear that this was a special New Years Eve meal for you, and went down a treat with the whole family!

The most divine Trifle. Our 11 Yr old son helped prep this. He loved it. It was amazing! Flavours were fantastic. Best trifle ever xx

What a gorgeous dessert, those rose petals just finish it off perfectly! Well done to your son for his help in the kitchen - it looks like the chefs did an amazing job!
