Quick & Easy Breakfast Dishes

Poha (Pune/Nagpur Style)
Fluffy, light, and ready in under 15 minutes. Just add mustard seeds, green chillies, chopped onions, and a generous pinch of Munje Turmeric Powder to washed poha. Garnish with lemon and coriander.

Thalipeeth (Kolhapuri-style)
A multigrain flatbread loaded with onions, spices, and coriander. Add Munje Garam Masala and Red Chilli Powder to the flour mix for extra depth. Serve hot with curd or white butter.

Upma with a Twist
Upgrade your regular upma by sautéing vegetables in Munje Turmeric Powder and Kala Masala. It adds a comforting, earthy flavour that makes a simple dish more satisfying.

Simple & Healthy Lunch Ideas

Varhadi Varan Bhaat (Amravati/Nagpur)
Comfort food at its best. Cook toor dal with Munje Turmeric Powder, a bit of garlic, and green chilli tadka. Serve with hot rice, ghee, and a side of lemon.

Baramati-style Vegetable Pulao
This aromatic one-pot dish comes alive with Munje Garam Masala and a touch of Dhane Powder. Toss in seasonal veggies, rice, and let the flavours build as they simmer.

Kolhapuri Usal (Kala Masala)
Use sprouted matki (moth beans) or mixed legumes, simmered in onion-tomato gravy, seasoned with Munje’s bold Kala Masala. Pair with pav or chapati for a satisfying lunch.

Evening Snacks Made Simple

A tea-time favourite. Add Munje Garam Masala to the coriander-besan mixture before steaming and shallow frying.

Make a spicy potato filling seasoned with Munje Red Chilli Powder, Dhane Powder, and a little Turmeric Powder. Grill between slices of bread with chutney for a street-style snack.
