Located in Fyshwick, Urban Providore Australia is a locally owned business selling regional Australian produce. From gourmet fudge to award winning olive oil, the store and website is a foodie’s paradise.

Each month, Urban Providore Australia hosts a tasting panel (which So Frank is a part of) giving members the opportunity to not only taste one of the product lines but also meet the producers.

Next month, it is all about Curry Traders; an Australian family owned business that lovingly hand packs all their pre-packaged curry kits.

All spices are pre-measured

Curry Traders ethos is straightforward – make it simple to cook curry by including all the spices you need, in the correct measures, along with step-by-step instructions on exactly how to cook it in pre-packaged curry kits.

In preparation for the upcoming tasting panel meeting, Urban Providore Australia challenged us to put Curry Traders to the test by cooking with one of their curry kits. So dutifully, with our kit selected – Goan Fish Curry, we shopped for the fresh ingredients listed in the instructions and headed home to cook!

The start of a beautiful Goan Fish Curry

True to their word, after an hour of grinding spices, chopping onions, mixing  and simmering a bubbling pot, we had a delicious Goan Fish Curry for dinner. We next have our sights set on their award winning Lamb Madras.
