About The Curry Creations
What is The Curry Creations? +
The Curry Creations is a homemade Indian meal prep and weekly tiffin delivery service based in New Jersey. We offer fresh, authentic Ghar Ka Khana -- home-style Indian cooking -- delivered directly to your doorstep across all of New Jersey.
What does Ghar Ka Khana mean? +
Ghar Ka Khana means home-style cooking -- simple, fresh, and comforting Indian meals just like you would eat at home. It is the philosophy behind every dish we make.
Who started The Curry Creations? +
The Curry Creations was founded by Sushma, a passionate home cook from a Punjabi family raised in Chennai, South India. Having spent years learning authentic family recipes from her parents, Sushma started the business in July 2024 to share the joy of real homemade Indian cooking with New Jersey's communities.
Who cooks the food? +
All meals are freshly prepared by our in-house chef Sushma using traditional family recipes passed down through generations. Every dish is made with the same love and care as food made at home.
When did The Curry Creations start? +
We launched in July 2024. While we are a young business our recipes are rooted in decades of family cooking tradition.
Where are you based? +
We are based in New Jersey and deliver all across the state. We are a local family-run business -- not a national chain or franchise.
What makes you different from Indian restaurants? +
Several key differences: (1) We cook exclusively in 100% olive oil -- most restaurants use vegetable or palm oil. (2) Zero preservatives. (3) Small batch cooking -- not mass-produced. (4) Authentic family recipes, not Americanized versions. (5) Food is cooked to order and delivered fresh on the day it is cooked. (6) We are a delivery service, not a dine-in restaurant.
What makes you different from meal kit services like HelloFresh? +
Meal kit services send you raw ingredients that you cook yourself. The Curry Creations sends you fully cooked, ready-to-eat homemade Indian meals. Zero prep, zero cooking required -- just heat and eat.
How can I contact you? +
You can reach us by phone at (866) 329-6949, by email at info@thecurrycreations.com, via WhatsApp at 848-226-8666, or through our contact page at thecurrycreations.com/pages/contact.
Food Quality, Ingredients and Health
Is your food fresh or frozen? +
All meals are freshly cooked -- never frozen. We cook every meal close to the delivery date and deliver it fresh to your doorstep.
Do you use preservatives or artificial ingredients? +
No. We do not use preservatives, artificial additives, artificial colors, or flavor enhancers of any kind. Every ingredient is whole and fresh.
What oil do you cook with? +
We exclusively cook every single dish in 100% olive oil and nothing else. No vegetable oil, no palm oil, no ghee, no butter. This makes our food significantly healthier than most Indian restaurants while still delivering authentic flavor.
Is your food healthy? +
Yes. Our meals are balanced, fresh, and made with controlled oil and spices. All meals are cooked exclusively in olive oil -- a heart-healthy alternative to the vegetable or palm oil used by most Indian restaurants. No preservatives, no artificial additives.
What ingredients do you use? +
We use fresh vegetables, lentils, quality proteins, authentic Indian spices, and 100% olive oil. We avoid artificial preservatives and shortcuts commonly used in mass-produced foods.
Do you reuse cooking oil? +
No, never. We use fresh olive oil for every batch of cooking.
How spicy is the food? +
Our meals are prepared with balanced, moderate spice levels suitable for most customers. They are not overly spicy. If a dish is traditionally spicier it will be mentioned in the menu description.
Can I request less spice or milder food? +
Yes, you can mention spice preferences during ordering -- add a note at checkout or contact us at (866) 329-6949 before the order cutoff.
Are your portions filling? +
Yes. Our portions are designed for proper, satisfying meals -- not snack-sized servings. Each dish is sized to serve as a full meal.
Menu and Food Options
What kind of food do you offer? +
We offer a rotating weekly menu of authentic North Indian home-cooked dishes including curries, dals, sabzis (vegetable dishes), rice dishes, and sides. Both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options are available every week.
How many dishes are offered each week? +
Each week features a curated menu of approximately 9 dishes. The menu rotates weekly to keep meals fresh and exciting.
Does the menu change every week? +
Yes! We rotate our menu every week. Subscribe to our emails to get this week's menu delivered to your inbox before anyone else.
Do you offer vegetarian options? +
Yes, we offer multiple vegetarian dishes every week. Our mix-and-match meal plans let you choose purely vegetarian if you prefer.
Do you offer non-vegetarian options? +
Yes. Our non-vegetarian dishes include chicken, eggs, mutton, fish, and occasionally other proteins. The specific protein is always clearly listed in each dish's description.
Do you offer gluten-free meals? +
Many of our dishes are naturally gluten-free including most curries, dals, rice dishes, and vegetable sabzis. Please review dish descriptions carefully or contact us with specific dietary requirements.
What should I order if I am new? +
Start with a meal plan -- it gives you variety, convenience, and the best value. Our 5-meal plan is a great starting point. You can mix and match vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes. Most customers reorder weekly once they try it.
Is it worth the price? +
Think of it this way -- groceries plus cooking time plus cleanup plus effort adds up to more than our plans cost. With us you get time saved, consistent homemade meals, zero cooking stress, zero mess, and fresh food at your door.
Meal Plans and Ordering
What meal plans do you offer? +
We offer five weekly meal plans: 5 Meals ($80), 6 Meals, 7 Meals, 10 Meals, and 12 Meals per week. All plans are mix-and-match -- you choose your preferred dishes from that week's menu.
What is the difference between the meal plans? +
The plans differ only in the number of meals per week. The 5-meal plan is great for individuals. The 10 and 12-meal plans are ideal for families or those wanting full-week coverage. All plans offer the same fresh homemade quality.
Can I mix vegetarian and non-vegetarian in one plan? +
