Indian groceries in Lublin: start with fresh vegetables
Dry goods are easy to stock up on; fresh vegetables and herbs are bought for the next few days of cooking. So this starter basket for Lublin is built around the fresh vegetables section. Fresh produce in Polish shops and markets is labelled in Polish, so the Polish name is in italics:
- Okra (bhindi, ladies finger; okra or bamia): for bhindi masala or sambar. Fresh okra, 250 g.
- Fresh coriander (dhania; kolendra): for garnish, green chutney and raita. Coriander, one bunch.
- Fresh ginger (adrak; imbir): for curries, dal and masala chai. Fresh ginger, 250 g.
- Curry leaves (kadi patta; liście curry): for the tadka on your dal. Look for them in the fresh vegetables section.
- Fresh chillies (papryczki chili): for example Thai red chillies.
Add lentils, basmati rice and your everyday spices, and you have bhindi masala, a curry-leaf dal and a coriander chutney for the week.
The Tuesday rule for fresh produce
Orders with fresh vegetables, fruit or herbs are collected until Monday and shipped on Tuesday. An order placed on Tuesday or later ships the following week. If you want your okra and coriander to go out on the next Tuesday, order by Monday.
Keeping it fresh for a few days
- Okra: dry, in a paper bag in the fridge. Wash it just before cutting, or it turns slimy.
- Coriander: stems in a glass of water, or wrapped in a damp paper towel, in the fridge.
- Ginger: unpeeled, in the fridge. Spare ginger freezes well and grates straight from frozen.
- Curry leaves: in a closed bag in the fridge, or frozen and used straight in the tadka.
Asian store Lublin: the same online shop
The same online shop also sells Thai, Korean, African and Latin American products: sauces, noodles, rice and spices. Our guide to the Asian grocery store online in Poland goes through the sections.
