Origin Story
Thai Massaman curry has blossomed as a cultural melting pot, with influences from various food cultures. Specifically, the influence of nearby Malaysia and its Muslim communities has left an indelible mark on the cuisine of Thailand. It can be seen in the complex spicing of this dish, which includes whole spices such as cloves, cassia, nutmeg and mace, which are not native to the area. The rich flavours from these spices are married with ingredients such as lemongrass, galangal and makrut lime leaves, which are synonymous with Thailand.
However, the story of its origin is hotly contested. Some believe that an early iteration of Massaman curry was first introduced to Thailand by spice traders, who travelled down the early spice routes from India and Persia and that its spicing, therefore, has Indian influences.
Our rendition includes a complex spice blend and pays homage to the ancient spice routes that are said to have influenced this dish.

The Neapolitan dough simply needs removing from the bag, placing into an oiled bowl (oil provided) and covered for 2-4 hours to come to room temperature and prove.
Our gluten free bases arrive pre-stretched and ready to top.
When you’re ready to cook, and your oven or pizza oven is fully up to temperature, stretch the dough by hand and place onto a pizza paddle or baking tray dusted with the included polenta flour.
Spread over the tomato sauce, add your cheese and chosen toppings, then bake until golden, bubbling and irresistible.
