Masala Tikki Kashmir | Authentic Kashmiri Cooking Spice
Masala Tikki Kashmir
The spice cake at the heart of every Kashmiri curry.
A handmade, sun-dried masala cake that crumbles straight into hot oil — releasing a deep, aromatic Kashmiri spice base in seconds. One tikki, and your curry tastes like the valley itself.
The secret base behind authentic Kashmiri food
Masala Tikki Kashmir is a traditional Kashmiri spice cake — a handcrafted, sun-dried blend of spices pressed into a small tikki. Crumble it into hot oil or gravy and it dissolves into a rich, aromatic masala base, giving curries instant, authentic valley flavour. No grinding a dozen spices, no shortcuts. Just real Kashmiri taste, the way home kitchens have made it for generations. Handmade. Sun-dried. Unmistakably Kashmiri.
One tikki. A whole curry's worth of flavour.
Made the way Kashmir has always made it
In Kashmir, the soul of a dish is its masala base. Long before packaged spice mixes existed, valley kitchens kept their flavour secret in a humble form — small cakes of ground spices, shaped by hand and dried slowly in the mountain sun. Drop one into hot oil at the start of cooking and it would bloom into a deep, fragrant foundation that no quick sprinkle of powder could match. Masala Tikki Kashmir carries that very tradition into your kitchen.
Each tikki is handcrafted in small batches, never mass-produced. Quality spices are blended to a time-honoured Kashmiri recipe, pressed into shape by hand, and sun-dried to concentrate their aroma and colour. The result is a compact little powerhouse of flavour — one that does the work of an entire spice rack in a single, fuss-free step.
Authenticity begins with the ingredients. We use carefully chosen spices and a traditional blend, with nothing artificial added. Every batch is freshly prepared and sealed in hygienic, food-grade packaging, so the aroma, colour, and potency reach you exactly as they left the kitchen.
Whether you're cooking a slow dum aloo, a rich meat curry, a tangy fish gravy, or a simple vegetable dish, one Masala Tikki transforms it — building the unmistakable depth and warmth of true Kashmiri cooking. This isn't just a spice. It's the difference between a curry that's good and a curry that tastes like home.

Good to know
What is Masala Tikki Kashmir?
It's a traditional Kashmiri cooking ingredient — a handmade, sun-dried spice cake used to build a masala base for curries. It is not a ready-to-eat snack; it's crumbled into hot oil or gravy while cooking to give dishes authentic Kashmiri flavour.
How do I use it?
Heat oil or ghee, crumble in one or two tikkis and let the spices bloom for a few seconds, then add your onion/tomato/curd base and main ingredient. The tikki dissolves into the gravy, creating a deep, ready-made masala foundation.
Is it very spicy?
The heat is warm and balanced rather than fiery, and it's fully in your control — use fewer tikkis for milder dishes or more for extra punch. The focus is on rich, layered flavour, not raw heat.
Which dishes does it suit?
Almost any Kashmiri-style curry: dum aloo, mutton and meat curries, fish gravy, vegetable dishes, nadru (lotus stem), pulses, and marinades. Anywhere you want an authentic valley masala base.
