storage and heating instructions
Our ready-to-eat dishes are best enjoyed warmed up. Heat your meal for five to six minutes on a stove over a medium flame. Serve and enjoy! We recommend using a stove but, if you need to microwave your meal, simply pop the dish in for three minutes in a 1150W microwave. Keep your Foodhak meal refrigerated and, once opened, consume within two days (not that you'll be able to resist our delicious meals for that length of time!)
Combination suggestions
We recommend enjoying this meal with our other delicious dishes from the same region of India, like our Saag Tofu and Jackfruit Makhani.
