Assuming that they have three of the ones you want in your store. Their stocking of this range is patchy, to say the least. Also, special offers like this have a habit of mysteriously disappearing from the shelves for the duration of the offer.

I discovered that I can actually eat a lot of Indian food if I cook it myself as it can be low carb. I'm doing a spreadsheet of ingredients at the moment because ethnic shops can be 50% cheaper for some of them.

I shall look at this offer though thank you

Their extra hot chilli powder certainly lives up to its name. Which means you can use less and it goes further and lasts longer.

What's the point of mild chilli powder?

It generally is, but watch the dahls as some are carb-rich.

If you can't manage to get any Rajah herbs and spices then keep an eye out for Naco, Indus, Cofresh, Dunn's, Taj, TRS or Greenfields as they can sometimes be cheaper. Always best to check the ethnic aisle as well as herbs and spices appear to be cheaper.

Also, Tesco currently sell East End Bay Leaves (40g) for 99p (£2.48/100g) compared to the Rajah offer at ASDA which are currently selling £1.50 for 3 which works out £5/100g.

Thanks for doing the research Lugh_Chronain that's awesome.

OH is in town just called and told me he got 100g resealable tin Rajah haldi turmeric for 99p at 99p Stores and looking at your research that's actually expensive

Moral is not everything that looks a bargain actually is !

But, at least the jar is resealable. When it's empty, you can refill it with a 50p sachet.

True but I want one of those traditional Indian spice tins. Your idea will work once we've chomped through 100g of turmeric.
