“Gathiya in a gravy — genius.”
I used to make this at home but the gathiya always turned soggy. Theirs stays crunchy somehow. The cashew-buttermilk base is spot on.

“My go-to comfort meal.”
Nothing fancy, just proper Kathiawadi sabzi that tastes like what my masi makes. The cashews add a lovely richness. Ordering on repeat.
Nisha G.✓ VERIFIEDChicago · NRI · Gujarati
“A rare find abroad.”
Cannot get gathiya sabzi anywhere in the US. This pouch saves me. Tastes authentic, good spice level. Only wish the pack were bigger.

“Comfort in a pouch”
Soft gathiya in a buttermilk base, very Kathiawadi. Unusual for outsiders but pure nostalgia for us. Wish there was more of it.

“Authentic but an acquired taste”
If you did not grow up on gathiya nu shaak it might feel odd. For me it is comfort food, though the gathiya softened more than I expected.

Questions, answered
What people ask.
Does Kaju Gathiya have onion or garlic?
Yes, Kaju Gathiya is cooked with onion and garlic, so it is not Jain. For dishes without them, see no onion, no garlic and our Jain dishes.
What do you eat Kaju Gathiya with?
Eat it with bajra rotla, rotli or parathas.
Does Kaju Gathiya contain milk, nuts or wheat?
Kaju Gathiya contains milk and cashew nuts. The full ingredient list is above, under Ingredients.
How do I heat Kaju Gathiya?
Drop the sealed pouch into boiling water for 5 minutes, then snip it open and serve. Or empty it into a covered bowl and microwave for 2 minutes, stirring once halfway. It keeps at room temperature, so there is nothing to thaw.
How long does Kaju Gathiya keep?
12 months from the manufacture date printed on the pouch, unopened, at room temperature, with no preservatives: it is sealed in a foil pouch and sterilised at 121°C. Once opened, eat it straight away, or refrigerate it and finish within 24 hours.
How many people does one pouch of Kaju Gathiya serve?
One 300g pouch serves about 2. It also comes in packs of 2 and 3.
Does it really not need refrigeration?
Correct. Our retort pouch is sealed with the air pressed out, then sterilised at 121°C — the same technology the Indian army and ISRO use. Store at room temperature for 12 months. Refrigerate only after opening.
Is the taste identical to fresh?
We won't say identical — fresh is always fresh. But the retort process locks in flavour and texture at the peak of cooking, so most customers can't tell the difference once it's heated through. For the closest result, heat it in a pan rather than the microwave.
Can I take it on a flight?
Yes — fully sealed retort pouches are allowed in checked baggage internationally. Many of our NRI customers do exactly this.
Do you ship outside India?
Yes, to most countries, on quote. Choose your country with the flag at the top of the page, fill your basket and tap Request a shipping quote: we reply with the total and a payment page on thakarkitchen.com.
Is it safe to pay in advance?
Yes. Payments are handled entirely by our payment gateway — we never see or store your card or UPI details. If your order can't be fulfilled for any reason, the full amount is refunded automatically. Orders above ₹799 ship free. All orders are paid online: we do not offer Cash on Delivery.
