Phoran Spice Bundle — 6 Whole Spices, One Value Pack
Everything you need for authentic Bengali tempering in one bundle — six essential whole spices at a significant saving over buying individually. Each spice is sourced to Phoran's quality standard: clean, aromatic, and potent.
What’s in the Bundle? (250g total — 6 spices)
Jeera (Cumin Seeds): The warm, earthy anchor of Bengali tempering
Kali Rai (Black Mustard Seeds): First into the pan — crackles in mustard oil to release sharp, pungent flavour
Methi Dana (Fenugreek Seeds): Slightly bitter, adds deep complexity to dal and fish curry
Kalonji (Nigella Seeds): Peppery, smoky — essential in pickles and one of the five Panch Phoran seeds
Saunf (Fennel Seeds): Sweet and anise-like — balances the sharper seeds in tempering
Ajwain (Carom Seeds): Thyme-like and pungent, essential for parathas and Bengali snacks
How to Make Panch Phoran with This Bundle
Panch Phoran is the Bengali five-spice blend — equal parts jeera, kali rai, methi, kalonji, and saunf. Mix ¼ tsp of each into a small jar and use as your tempering blend. Heat mustard oil until smoking, reduce heat, add 1 tsp Panch Phoran mix and wait 10–15 seconds until seeds crackle. Then add your vegetables, fish, or dal immediately. The ajwain in this bundle works separately for parathas and pakoras.
