When I got married, I had exactly one dish in my culinary arsenal: instant noodles. Two minutes, one pot, zero judgment.
Cooking was never my passion. I didn’t dream of spices or handwritten family recipes. I dreamed of someone else doing it for me. And in India, that was totally possible. But then, in 2001… Amsterdam happened.
With two small kids and no help, I had no choice but to start cooking. What began as survival quickly turned social, with friends dropping by and eventually asking if I was open to cooking for their parties. Before I knew it, I was running a mini catering gig from my home.
From hearing “Is this the same chicken as yesterday?” from my family, I started hearing “This is delicious!” and getting paid for it. It was a win win.
Who knew my journey from instant noodles to impromptu caterer would be the best accident I never planned?

It all started with a craving. A craving for the bold, authentic flavors of home. Every time we set out to buy Indian-marinated meats, we were met with the same disappointment. The choices were limited, the flavors uninspiring, and nothing quite captured the rich, aromatic taste we grew up with.
That’s when we saw it. Not just a gap in the market, but an opportunity to share something truly special. We realized that Indian marinated meats were largely unexplored beyond the familiar Tandoori Chicken. And so, Just Gril It was born.
Introducing our succulent, flavor-packed marinated meats, poultry, and fish crafted with traditional Indian spices, ready for you to grill on the BBQ or cook effortlessly in the Air Fryer. Whether you’re craving smoky, charred perfection or a quick and easy meal, we’ve made sure you don’t have to compromise on taste.
Let the flavors transport you to the heart of India, one bite at a time.
