Traditional Goda Masala | पारंपारिक गोडा मसाला

PIP's Traditional Goda Masala is a Maharashtrian spice blend with a mildly sweet, aromatic flavour and an earthy depth. Coriander, coconut, sesame, cumin and warming spices come together with groundnut oil and compounded asafoetida to bring a familiar character to Bharli Vangi, Amti, Masale Bhat and everyday vegetable curries. Its balance of sweetness and spice, with the richness of dry coconut, sets it apart from a more intensely spiced garam masala.

Made by Asha Jadhav and her team in Satara, this masala continues our connection with traditional food makers and the flavours of the Maharashtrian home kitchen. Whether you are preparing stuffed brinjal for a family meal, a pot of lentil curry or fragrant spiced rice, it adds warmth and a distinctive aroma without needing to assemble each spice separately.

Groundnut Oil in This Recipe

Groundnut oil is listed on the Goda Masala label alongside coconut, sesame and spices. The label does not specify that the oil is cold-pressed, so this masala's recipe should not be confused with the cold-pressed groundnut oil recipe used for our Solapuri Peanut Chutney.

A Traditional Recipe, Made with Care

Coriander, coconut, sesame, dry coconut and cumin form part of a layered blend with turmeric, chilli, clove, jaypatri, dalchini, nagkeshar, black pepper and tej patta.
