Flavour Notes
Curry filling is thicker than it would be as a stew — pies don't want runny fillings or the pastry goes soggy underneath. The spices are bloomed in oil before anything wet gets near them. Cooled completely before the lid, egg-washed before the oven; it's a pattern and it works.
Heating Instructions
All meals are fully cooked and delivered refrigerated. Keep refrigerated (consume within 4 days) or freeze immediately for up to 6 weeks. For best results, defrost overnight in the fridge — frozen-direct timings are a fallback, not the target.
Reheat to 75°C / 167°F internal temperature — a knife-tip held 2 seconds against the centre should feel hot, not warm. Always rest 2–5 minutes after reheating so the centre fully evens out. Reheat once only; never re-reheat leftovers.
Prepared in a kitchen that also handles gluten, tree nuts, dairy and soy — see the allergens list for dish-specific information.
Heat gently until piping hot throughout. Times are a guide — check the centre before serving.

The Story
Chicken thigh cooked slow in a mild Cape Malay curry sauce — coriander, cumin, a whisper of chilli — then lidded with a buttery shortcrust and baked golden. All the warmth of a proper curry in a handheld shell.
