ASHOKAIndian Meals 1932, Heat & Serve Vegetarian Lentils, Everyday Dal, All-Natural Indian Dal Tadka, Kosher Certified, Camping Friendly Food, Gluten-Free & with No Preservatives, Pack of 10

I bought these for camping, but have been enjoying them as part of the WFH lunch rotation. They're a little spicier than this sort of pouch normally is in the U.S., and I like that. Very flavorful overall, really, with no weird off-tones like shelf-stable food sometimes has. Next time I go camping, I'll snag some of their vegan paneer (tofu) options for my lactose-intolerant buddy. Right now, though, I'm back to buy their vegetarian sampler pack. Let's see what else they've got goin' on.

To me this is a medium heat not a mild, but it's got a good taste to it.

You can tell you are eating chopped spinach. Expensive, though. The boxes of Palak Paneer I have purchased recently had six packets; about the same price for five here.

These are actually pretty great considering what you'd expect to get. Each pouch is a hearty meal and goes great with some reheated naan, rotis, or tortillas. The price is great too, and I often eat these for lunch.

This is a good, convenient dish for busy week nights and for those who prefer or require gluten-free and vegetarian. Good flavor and spice, and recommend warming on pot on stove rather than microwave (better consistency). A little pricey relative to comparable grocery store options. We got the Kashmiri styled potatoes, but would try some of the other options available.

Best by date was 9 months into the future so it wasn't expired. But it tasted burnt or bitter. MTR, Tasty Bite, and Haldiram's Minute Khana are way better.

When added to your meat dish or even as a stand alone it tastes similar to an authentic Indian cuisine. Even if you mess it up it still tastes ok.

We love this amazingly tasty, easy, quick, shelf stable vegan dish.
