Kitchen guide

How to use each powder

Ideas, quantities and a quick recipe for every powder in the range. Start small, taste as you go, and make it your own.

Okra Powder

Okra's natural mucilage makes this powder a gentle thickener. Whisk it into soups, dals and gravies for a silkier body and a mild, fresh-green flavour, or knead it into dough for soft, pale-green rotis.

Best ways to use

  • Soups & stewsStir in 1–2 tsp per bowl for a silkier, thicker body.
  • Dal, sambar & kadhiAdds gentle body and a mild green note.
  • Rotis & parathasKnead 1 tbsp into each cup of atta.
  • Gravies & curriesThickens sauces without cream or cornflour.
  • Pakora & besan battersMix in for a mild vegetable flavour.
  • Green smoothiesBlend 1 tsp with spinach, cucumber and lemon.
Start with
1 tsp per serving
Instead of fresh
Use for body and flavour, not as a 1:1 swap for whole okra
Pairs well with
Cumin, tomato, ajwain, lemon, coconut
Kitchen tip
Whisk into a little cold water first to avoid lumps in hot liquids.
Try this: silky tomato soup

Whisk 2 tsp okra powder into 2 tbsp cold water. Stir it into 2 cups of simmering tomato soup and cook for 2 minutes until it thickens.

  • Amla chutneyGrind with coriander, green chilli, ginger and jaggery.

Questions

Frequently asked

Can't find what you're looking for? Email us and we'll get back to you.

What are Nouriva powders made from?
Each Nouriva powder is made from fruits or vegetables that are cleaned, dried and finely milled. Please check the label on your pack for the full ingredient list and nutrition information.
How much powder replaces fresh onion, garlic or ginger?
As a starting point: 1 tbsp onion powder for 1 medium onion, ⅛ tsp garlic powder for 1 clove, and ¼ tsp ginger powder for 1 tsp freshly grated ginger. Taste and adjust.
