Xotiq Foods Brings Authentic Taste of the East to Dinner Parties in the West
Press Dispensary - March 18, 2008 - Xotiq Foods (http://www.xotiq.co.uk) is serving up a recipe for success with a range of dinner kits that will enable even inexperienced home chefs to cook a complete South East Asian meal with confidence in just 30 minutes.
Prepared with the help of BBC ‘Masterchef’ finalist Daksha Mistry, each Xotiq kit contains all the key ingredients for an authentic Vietnamese, Malaysian, Indonesian or Thai meal, including spices, dipping sauces, chutney, fragrant rice, crackers and even stock – the cook needs only to add a favourite meat, fish or vegetables.
Underwhelmed by the quality of supermarket take home curries, conventional cook-in sauces and simple spice pastes, Xotiq’s creators spent two years developing their easy-to-prepare pack for time-poor professionals who love fine food.
And there’s much more on the Xotiq Foods menu than carefully selected and ethically sourced ingredients: accompanying instructions include everything from the cooking method for each dish and how to prepare perfect rice, to table decoration tips and the best wines to complement the meal.
Simon Lister, general manger of Xotiq Foods, says: “Even the culinary challenged need have no fear of a kitchen crisis with an Xotiq dinner kit, and self-confessed foodies will cook up a storm. You don’t need a larder full of exotic ingredients, all day to prepare or a culinary qualification to dazzle a dinner party or impress that special someone.”
The Xotiq Foods website features a real time audio download of step by step instructions, videocasts, and quick cooking guides. All dinner kits serve two generous portions, cost just £5.49 and can be purchased online at www.xotiq.co.uk or from selected retailers. Online orders are dispatched within 24 hours.
