A family kitchen tradition, now delivered across Pakistan
Every jar from Amma’s Ingredients carries the taste of the home kitchen: tangy achar, sweet murabba and flavourful chutneys that bring families together around the dining table.
Our recipes come from more than 50 years of home cooking. Traditional Shikarpuri-style pickles, fruit murabbas and chutneys were always made with patience, authentic spices, mustard oil and time-honoured preservation methods, and we still prepare them that way.
Shikarpuri achar takes its name from Shikarpur in Sindh, where homemade pickles are popular. Arab News describes the city as synonymous with achar and traces the craft back to pre-partition India.
In 2026 we brought Amma’s Ingredients online so more families could enjoy genuine homemade taste. Our team adds more than 20 years of FMCG industry experience, which means strict hygiene and consistent quality in every batch. Explore our range of homemade pickles, murabba, chutneys and desi ghee.

Homemade Shikarpuri-style achar
Tangy, spicy and full of flavour. Our achar follows traditional preparation with authentic spices and mustard oil, made in small batches the way it has always been made at home. Oil also acts as a preservative in achar, as the Google Arts & Culture story on Shikarpur explains.

Sweet fruit preserves in the classic Pakistani style, from favourites like hareer ka murabba to quince. Murabba is a fruit preserve popular across South Asia, traditionally made by cooking fruit with sugar. Enjoy it with breakfast, with paratha, or on its own as a sweet treat.
