Hand-Picked & Farm-Fresh Ingredients
Ferns’ mouth-watering range is Nut-Free, Gluten-Free, and Free of Artificial Colors & Flavoring, making it suitable for Vegetarians & Vegans.

Our products are made with hand-picked vegetables and fruits, grown by local farmers on farms around us. Each fruit or vegetable needs to pass 3 stringent criteria- Visual, Taste & Size! You will find fresh and succulent chunks of vegetables in every bottle. Once plucked in the morning, the fruits & vegetables are immediately brought into our factory to be inspected, washed, and processed. Packed by afternoon, our products retain the same freshness as they did in Mrs. Nataline’s days!

Have you tried Hakka Noodles Paste?

The Ferns’ Hakka noodle paste is the one-stop product for perfect Noodles, quick and super delicious. I use this mix to put together a bowl of awesome stir-fried rice as well. This is an incredibly tasty and easy paste for noodles. No other condiments are needed. Just add the Ferns’ Hakka noodle paste to your other ingredients as per your preference and turns out better than the restaurant’s style.

Variety of pickles for Vegetarians

Have you tried the brinjal, garlic, mango & lime pickles by Ferns’? Being a vegetarian I can vouch that they are appetising, distinctive, and absolutely complement my daal-chaawal perfectly. Even their mango chutney makes a fantastic side with stuffed parathas & theplas. Thank you Ferns’!

Products have been known for years!

Ferns’ products have been well known for years.
Especially their Prawn Balichow pickle. It’s delicious even if one spreads it on a slice of bread.
The Tandoori Chicken paste is good and if one follows the recipe on the bottle it turns out mouth-watering.
The Ferns’ dry masalaas, haldi and chilli, and coriander powders are purely authentic and add good flavour to your dishes.
All in all, Ferns’ is a good product and we can vouch for them.?

Jasma Sinh Testimonial

Fresh flavours without artificial additives and preservatives

Just a short note to thank the team at Ferns’ pickles and pastes – your products are amazing!
The butter chicken paste makes it so easy to rustle up the dish on those busy social evenings when I have one foot out the door! And your mild curry paste is an absolute lifesaver! I add it to many of my vegetarian dishes to bring out the flavour – it definitely takes the taste quotient up by a few notches.
The care that you have taken to provide fresh flavours without artificial additives and preservatives is commendable. Ferns’ is and will continue to remain an inseparable part of my kitchen. Oh! And I must not forget the Delish pickles you guys make – a permanent fixture at our dining table conversations. I miss my Mom a little fewer thanks to the Ferns’ brinjal pickle…

Authentic taste and extremely easy to prepare

Have been using Ferns’ products for a number of years. Their Vindaloo and Butter Chicken pastes give the dishes an authentic taste and are extremely easy to prepare. Loved their Mango and Brinjal Pickles.
Am extremely happy with their turmeric and Kashmiri red chilli powders too. Would recommend Ferns’ products to everyone.

Best Authentic Spices

Love the dishes prepared with spices from Ferns’. I have been using different products like chilli , haldi, coriander, and cumin powder and have now settled down for the best and most authentic powders manufactured by them. These powders add a special flavour and aroma and elevate the preparation of my cooking.
The packing is attractive and the product is money’s worth (affordable). It’s a must-have in the kitchen.
The pickles are tasty, and authentic, exactly like homemade. Reminds me of the pickles prepared at home. Value for money.

The best butter chicken paste one can have!

Also loved the butter chicken ready paste. Simply have to marinate the chicken with curd and the paste, cook it in the oven, and voila – the most delicious butter chicken is ready. If you want money from your husband, serve him Ferns’ butter chicken. If you want to butter your mother-in-law, serve her Ferns’ butter chicken. The one solution to all your cooking problems – Ferns’ pickles and ready pastes.

I am in love with Ferns'

As a regular user of Ferns products I can definitely say once you’ve used any of these masalas, or tasted the pickles and chutneys you won’t settle for anything else. There’s this coming home to a meal feeling.

My favourite is the Ferns’ Vindaloo masala. I’ve used it to cook beef, chicken, and even a vegetable dish. The aroma and flavours that it adds to the food, make for a deliciously appetising dish. The Ferns’ pickles (Brinjal and garlic being my favourites) and papads complete the meal.

Mrs. Nataline Fernandes

The Heart & Soul behind Ferns’

Big Ideas Begin Small

We proudly carry forward the legacy of our founder and biggest inspiration, Mrs. Nataline Fernandes whose culinary expertise transformed a quintessential Goan recipe into something inspiring. This enterprising lady decided to take her culinary skills and turn them into a brand. Her recipes of proprietary pastes & pickles are now a globally sought-after kitchen necessity.

Here’s her story.

Moving from Goa to Kirkee (now Khadki) in Pune, India, in 1927 with her spouse, Mrs. N. Fernandes steadily refined her culinary skills. She prepared and successfully sold preserves and pickles locally.

People quickly fell in love with her unique creations- which included Brinjal and Lime Pickles; Lemon Squashes; and Mango Jellies. In 1937, the brand Ferns’ was born through this success.

Her fresh and unique products were a big hit among British soldiers and their families who were based in Pune. All they wanted was delicious curries without having to prepare them on their own- and Mrs. Nataline provided them just that!

A pioneer of wet condiment curry pastes through her diverse range, her cooking creations became favorites for locals who wanted to cook various recipes using local spices and ingredients!

Over time, the world has changed, but Mrs. Nataline’s family carries forward her legacy by continuing to produce high-quality pastes and pickles with the same fervor as she did in Pune. Mrs. Fernandes planted the seeds of success that Ferns’ has achieved today!
