Spaghetti with Hot Madras Mix - Kara Kozhambu - Tamil Tamarind Garlic Gravy

Why Hot Madras Mix is a perfect fit

Hot Madras Mix takes inspiration from the fiery Kara Kozhambu (Tamil tamarind gravy) and reimagines it as a stir-fry base. When swirled into spaghetti, it creates a tangy, peppery, smoky fusion sauce that bridges Indian comfort food and Italian classics. The idea came from Sunday lunches in Tamil homes — bold tamarind gravies that cling to rice — now adapted to pasta, making it a quick global-meets-local meal.
