Why It Tastes Different

The Dum Difference
Anyone can cook rice and meat together. Dum is what happens when you refuse to rush it.
Marinated Overnight
Meat rests in yoghurt, ginger, green chilli and our house garam masala for a full night — long enough for the spice to reach the bone.
Layered, Never Mixed
Aged long-grain basmati is parboiled and layered over the marinade with fried onion, mint, saffron milk and ghee. Layers stay layers.
Sealed & Slow-Fired
The handi is sealed shut with dough and left on a low flame. No steam escapes, so every bit of aroma goes back into the rice — that's dum.
Opened at Your Table
We seal it, you break it. The first thing out of a CraveBox handi is the smell — and that's the part no delivery app can photograph.
