Welcome to

Queens Curry Kitchen

Namaste! I'm Nupur Arora, and my story is a pleasant cocktail of multiple cultural influences. I was born and raised in India in a multi-lingual family. I came to New York almost 25 years ago and fell in love with the borough of Queens, the most diverse borough in the world!

My cooking journey started with being a home cook for 18 years. In my spare time, I started making some cooking videos on Facebook LIVE, and those sessions became so popular that people started asking for my recipes. That's when my first book "The Vegan Indian Home" was born in 2018.

By then my audience started asking how they could get the spices I cook with! That combined with my daughter going away to college and missing Indian food, but not knowing how to cook, led to the launch of my spice company Namastay Foods and Bev Corp 2020. My Indian spices make it easy for curry lovers all over the world to enjoy the takeout flavors at home.

My true love continues to be teaching others how to create flavorful Indian food at home. I hope you will join me for of these classes, whether you are new to the plant-based lifestyle or just trying to add some interesting recipes to your repertoire. I promise you will also say that this food is indeed "Mom's love on a plate"!

It’s like you're standing right next to me and we are cooking together, even though we are 2,000 miles apart! Your recipes are easily followed, so very flexible and incredibly delicious.

I wanted to learn to cook these dishes myself, rather than going to a restaurant. Real Indian food, real fast. Can't get better than that!

She explained all her cooking steps very clearly and the food was incredible - very possibly the best chana masala I had in my life! Definitely recommend.
