Omega Chilli Powder Kashmiri: mild, deep-red chilli powder for tandoori, butter chicken and rogan josh. Single 1 kg pack.
Kashmiri chilli powder is made from mild Kashmiri red chillies, prized for deep red colour with gentle heat. It gives tandoori chicken, butter chicken, rogan josh and tikka marinades their vivid red without making them fiery. Mix it with yoghurt, ginger, garlic and garam masala for marinades, or add it to gravies with other ground spices. It can be combined with hotter chilli powder to balance colour and heat. Kashmiri red chillies are known for giving food a dark red colour and flavour without making it too pungent. To protect that colour, store the powder sealed and away from light and heat, which dull the red over time. Restaurants often use it for tandoori marinades precisely because it colours chicken and paneer vividly while keeping the dish approachable for guests who prefer milder food and families with children.
