Indian food brand Patak's has added a range of portion-sized Paste Pots to its product line-up to improve convenience and reduce food waste.

Patak’s brand owner Associated British Foods says the new single-pot offering can create a meal for two without any fuss or wastage.

The pots each include at least 11 spices which are ground, blended, and preserved in oil to retain flavour.

The pots come in flavours of Korma, Tikka Masala, and Madras, and the range has an RRP of $4 each, and is now sold in Woolworths and IGA stores.
