Fortune Mustard Oil is a cooking oil pressed from mustard seeds, widely used in Indian cooking, particularly in North Indian, Bengali and Eastern Indian cuisines. It is known for its strong, pungent aroma and deep golden-yellow colour, which come through in dishes cooked with it.

The oil has a sharp, distinctive flavour that mellows slightly on heating, and is commonly used for everyday cooking as well as for pickling, where its strong flavour helps season vegetables.

How to use

• Heat the oil in a pan until it reaches smoking point, then let it cool slightly before adding spices or ingredients, a common step for mustard oil in Indian cooking.
• Use for everyday tempering, curries, frying or pickling.

Pack size: 1 litre. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Priya Tomato Pickle is a cooked tomato pickle in oil, made without garlic. Unlike a cut-fruit pickle it has no firm pieces to bite through; it spreads like a thick chutney, sour and hot together, with the tomato cooked down until it darkens.

Best for

• Idli and dosa
• Curd rice and plain hot rice
• Chapati rolls and sandwiches

Serving

Because it is soft, it can be spread rather than spooned, which makes it the easiest of the pickles to use in a roll or on toast. Take it out with a dry spoon every time, and level the surface so the oil settles back over the pickle before the jar goes away. Do not return an unused portion from the plate to the jar. A teaspoon is enough alongside a full meal.

Pack and storage

300g jar. Store in a cool, dry place, sealed after opening.

Haldiram's Dry Petha is the Agra-style sweet made from ash gourd, candied in sugar syrup and then dried so the outside is firm and lightly crystallised while the inside stays soft and juicy. It is a sweet, not a namkeen, and it is far less rich than a milk-based mithai.

Best with

• Serving after a meal
• Festival sweet boxes and gifting
• Chai in the afternoon

Pack and storage

400 g pack. Store in a cool, dry place and keep the pack sealed after opening.

Deep Malabar Parotta, family pack — 20 pieces, 1.84kg, frozen. The layered Kerala flatbread: flaky, soft and pulled apart by hand rather than cut.

Malabar parotta is made by coiling and resting the dough so it cooks into dozens of thin layers. It is the standard partner to Kerala beef fry, chicken curry, egg roast, salna and kurma, and it is also what goes into kothu parotta, where the parotta is shredded and tossed on the griddle with egg, vegetables or meat.

Cook from frozen on a hot tawa or pan for a minute or two per side until the layers puff and brown, then clap or crush it lightly between your hands to open the layers. Keep frozen until use; do not refreeze once thawed.

Bauckhof Organic Corn Flour 500g

ja! Roasted & Salted Peanuts are shelled peanuts, dry roasted and salted, in a 200g pack.

The roast is what makes them: deep and even, so the nuts snap rather than bend, with just enough salt to keep you going back to the bowl. Straightforward beer-and-cricket snacking, but they earn their place in cooking too — scattered over poha and upma, stirred into chivda and bhel, crushed into a peanut chutney, or pounded for a Thai salad dressing.

Tip them into a bowl rather than eating from the bag if you want them to last the evening. Store sealed in a cool, dry cupboard.
