JUGAAD. IT'S A PHILOSOPHY AND NOW IT'S A BLEND.

In India, jugaad (joo-GAAD) means finding a way with whatever you've got. A challenge is an opportunity, not a reason to stop.

Meherwan grew up with it. The philosophy shaped Chai Pani, Botiwalla, and every tin of spices we've ever made at Spicewalla.

Jugaad It, the blend, is a three-ingredient mix: salt, sugar, MSG. They form the foundation of flavour in almost anything you cook and are here to help you make magic, even if you don't have all of the ingredients in the recipe.

Reach for it when something's missing. It's always here to deliver flavour in a pinch!

Cooking is community and our Spices are the spark ✨

Chef Meherwan Irani started Spicewalla because he believes food is more than just fuel. It’s connection.

From family tables to restaurant kitchens, cooking brings us together, builds community, and spreads love. Inspired by the bold flavours of Chai Pani, Meherwan wanted to make it easy for everyone to cook real, flavour-packed food at home.

So he did what chefs do: sourced the best ingredients, perfected the blends, and brought them to your kitchen.

Now, the only question is: what will you cook today?
