Authentic Homemade Snacks and Traditional Pickles
At Mommade, I bring the warmth of a traditional kitchen to your home. From crispy mathris to wholesome sweets, everything I make is crafted with organic ingredients, zero preservatives, and plenty of love.
This is how Mommade began. At 72, I decided to turn my passion for my mother's recipes into a business, sharing the authentic taste of homemade Punjabi food. Every jar and packet I send out is filled with natural ingredients, family traditions, and a whole lot of love.
My 'Chai ke Sathi' are the perfect companions for your daily cup of tea. This picture shows some of my classic mathris: the fragrant Methi Masala, the wholesome Besan Masala, and the light, crispy Sooji Mathi. Each one is made to give you that comforting, homemade flavour.
This is my Namakpara, a classic savoury snack you can't stop munching on. I make them with sooji to keep them extra light and crispy, seasoned with ajwain and cumin for that perfect traditional taste. They are available in 250g and 500g packs.
For those looking for a healthier, gluten-free option, I make these Bajra Mathis. Made from pearl millet and sesame seeds, they are wonderfully crisp and packed with nutrients. Now everyone can enjoy a tasty snack, 'jee bhar ke khao'.
Come take a peek at my stall at a local market. I love setting up my full range of homemade goodies, from namkeen and sweets to pickles and beverages. It’s a joy to meet everyone and share the flavours I grew up with.
I believe a gift from the heart should look as good as it tastes. This is my new festive packaging, perfect for sharing the warmth of homemade treats with your loved ones during Diwali, weddings, or any celebration.
It was such a pleasure to have journalist Ravish Kumar visit my stall at The Earth Collective market. I was so happy he enjoyed my homemade ladoos and took some home. It's moments like these that fill my heart with joy.
About Featured
When you order a pack of my mathri or namakpara, you are getting a batch made specifically for you using pure desi ghee, not commercial oils. I pack these in moisture-lock pouches to keep that crunch fresh for weeks, so you do not have to worry about store-bought staleness or hidden preservatives.
I started Mommade in my 70s because I believe food is the simplest way to connect with our roots. My kitchen is not a factory; it is an extension of the home cooking I grew up with.
Why Mommade Snacks?
- Small Batches: I never mass-produce. Every order is prepared fresh to ensure the texture stays perfect, whether it is the flaky layers of my Sooji Mathri or the crunch of my Namakpara.
- Pure Ingredients: You will not find refined palm oil, vegetable fat, or artificial chemicals here. I use organic semolina, wheat flours, and pure desi ghee.
- Health-Conscious Choices: For those watching their diet, I offer millet-based options like Bajra Mathri and baked varieties that are packed with fibre and nutrients, not empty calories.
My Kitchen, Your Home
Based in Greater Kailash, I ship these traditional snacks across Delhi NCR and beyond. Whether you need a healthy tea-time snack, something for the kids to munch on after school, or a thoughtful, organic gift for Diwali, I am here to help. If you have specific dietary needs, such as gluten-free requirements, just let me know, and I can suggest the best variant for your palate. Everything is made to order, so you are always getting the freshest taste of 'Maa ke hath ka swaad'.
Mommade
I am Meenakshi Mehra, and I started Mommade at 72 because I truly believe it is never too late to share what you love. My kitchen in Greater Kailash is where I recreate the recipes my mother taught me, focusing on pure, organic ingredients that nourish rather than just fill you up.
