UNION, NJ (MARCH 9, 2020) – Deep Indian Kitchen, the #1 Indian food brand across natural and conventional grocery stores, will debut three new frozen Indian meals in grocery stores nationwide this summer. The new frozen Indian meals – Chicken Vindaloo, Butter Chicken, and Chicken Korma – further expand the brand’s frozen CPG line while diversifying its range of spicy to mild savory food offerings.
Mintel International Food Trends Survey recently reported 60% of international food eaters are seeking spicy and savory flavors. Overall, international flavors have led a 20% cumulative annual growth rate in new food & beverage launches from 2013-2017, largely driven by the 87% of millennial consumers eating the cuisine according to a Technomic Ethnic Food & Beverage Consumer Trend Report. Deep Indian Kitchen’s new range of spicy-to-mild savory chicken entrees is well-timed in answering this growing demand from millennial foodie consumers.
The brand’s authentically prepared Indian food features a flavorful range of spice and spiciness along with clean label ingredients. The Chicken Vindaloo recipe packs the most heat with its hot, tangy sauce that is simmered for hours and served with turmeric basmati rice. Often on the menu in Indian restaurants, the Butter Chicken recipe features a smoky, luscious sauce with medium level heat and is served with cumin basmati rice. Finally, the Chicken Korma recipe is a mild, nutty coconut-based sauce accentuated by the brightness of green cardamom and tamarind served with cumin basmati rice.
“Our family is committed to sharing a little piece of India with every recipe we create in our self-engineered plants. We strive to share our food in a way that’s accessible for consumers while keeping time-honored cooking techniques and flavor at the core of our process,” said Deepak “Deep” Amin, CEO of Deep Foods. “Our goal is to fill the unmet need for high-quality, authentic Indian food in natural and conventional grocery stores with our line of frozen food.”
Staying true to tradition, all Deep Indian Kitchen frozen entrees are prepared in small batches with layers of flavor intricately added during a time-intensive cooking process and thoughtfully made without any artificial ingredients. Deep Indian Kitchen’s new highly flavorful meals are slated to hit national grocery chains this summer in the signature vibrant packaging featuring bold archways that symbolize the brand’s intention in welcoming consumers into a memorable Indian food experience.
