Buying Indian groceries online in Germany
Online Indian grocers are the easiest option outside the big cities. The two most-searched names in Germany are Jamoona (about 18,100 searches a month) and Dookan (about 6,600). Compare delivery costs, minimum order values and chilled-delivery options for paneer and yogurt before you order.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I buy ghee in Germany?
Indian grocery stores and the online Indian grocers sell ghee. In any German supermarket you can also use Butterschmalz — clarified butter. Ghee is cooked a little longer, so it tastes nuttier, but Butterschmalz works well in its place in our recipes.
Where can I buy paneer in Germany?
Indian grocery stores usually keep paneer in the chiller or freezer, and online Indian grocers sell it too. "Paneer kaufen" is searched about 2,900 times a month in Germany, so it is worth calling your nearest shop to ask before you go.
Is there an Indian grocery store near me?
Search Google Maps for "indischer Supermarkt" or "Indian grocery store" — Germans search "Indian store near me" about 27,100 times a month. Berlin and Munich have several well-reviewed shops (listed above); in smaller towns, Asian supermarkets and online shops are often the easiest option.
Can I buy basmati rice in a normal German supermarket?
Yes. Basmatireis is a standard item in German supermarkets. For biryani, look for long, aged basmati — Indian grocery stores usually stock larger bags and more brands.
