About us
Started by Mrs Rajni Singh, we are a family run business based at Willow Tree Farm, Peterborough, Cambs. As a typical mum running a busy household Rajni has been cooking Panjabi food for the past 40 years for her family but also for friends and neighbours who wanted authentic North Indian cuisine for parties and functions, so in 2017 Rajni and her family decided to use her culinary skills and create The Little Panjab Food Company.
Rajni hails from an old Panjabi Sikh family with a rich heritage and roots going back to pre-partition India and the Panjab region. As a first generation British born Panjabi, Rajni was taught to cook by her parents using recipes handed down over decades, using authentic spices ground at home and fresh ingredients including organic vegetables and farm produced meat.
All the Singh family take part in the business and we describe ourselves as British by birth, Panjabi by heritage and passionate about our food. We make and serve authentic Panjabi cuisine as only we Panjabis know how, once tasted it’s never forgotten, and we invite you to try it.
What we do
We are an artisan producer of authentic Panjabi cuisine prepared using home ground spices, organic fresh vegetables grown at Willow Tree Farm and locally sourced meat from responsible and ethical suppliers. We cook to order catering for private parties, office functions, civil ceremonies, weddings and outdoor events where we prepare and sell our food to eat immediately or take away from our stall. We also hold regular pop-up takeaway events from our Willow Tree Farm base for people living in and around the PE6 and PE4 postcodes.
We cater from 10 people to 100+ depending on your needs and choice of food. We deliberately keep our menu limited as we cook fresh from the masala to the thali (sauce to dinner plate) ensuring, quality, texture, visual appeal but most of all a taste that will leave you wanting more. We can of course cook a wide range of dishes, vegetarian, vegan and meat but please note we do NOT cook beef or veal. For a bespoke menu simply call or email us to discuss your plans. We’ll even cook a sample meal for you to try so we can adjust the spice and heat (chilli) to suit your taste.
