Groundnut oil, also known as peanut oil, has been a part of Indian culture for centuries. It is believed that the ancient Indian physician, Sushruta, used groundnut oil for medicinal purposes, including the treatment of skin ailments and respiratory problems.

According to Indian mythology, Lord Rama, the protagonist of the Hindu epic Ramayana, was exiled to the forest for 14 years along with his wife Sita and brother Lakshmana. During their stay in the forest, they came across a group of monkeys who were starving. To help them, Sita offered them a handful of groundnuts, which they loved.

Impressed by the nutritional value of the groundnuts, Lord Rama then planted them in the forest and taught the monkeys how to cultivate them. From then on, groundnuts became a staple in the diet of the people who lived in the forest.

Today, it is widely used in Indian households for cooking and is known for its many health benefits. At Organelle Farms, we provide fresh and organic groundnuts that are free from harmful pesticides and chemicals.

Our groundnut oil is extracted using traditional methods, ensuring that it retains its natural flavour and nutritional value. Our commitment to ethical farming practices and sustainable agriculture ensures that our customers receive only the best quality products. Bring home the goodness of our all natural groundnut oil, made from hand-picked fully organic groundnuts (peanuts) cultivated at Organelle Farms. This is cold-pressed under 45°C and is processed in a wooden Ghani. This is a timeless extraction technique to keep all the natural nutrients locked in. Our Organic Groundnut Oil has a higher smoke point than most other oils, thus allowing heating or frying at higher temperatures. This oil is frequently used for frying, sautéing, and flavouring.
