This homemade chili powder recipe is super versatile, easy-to-make and will add spicy yet subtle flavours to your home cooking.

Ingredients: (makes about 7-8 tbsp)

2 tbsp cumin seeds
1 tbsp black peppercorns
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp paprika powder
2 tsp allspice berries
2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp whole cloves

tbsp = tablespoon
tsp = teaspoon

Directions:

  • Grind the cumin, peppercorns, salt, allspice and cloves

  • Sieve into a bowl. Regrind any bits that didn't go through the sieve

  • Finally, stir in the chili, paprika, garlic and onion powders

That's all there is to it!

How to Toast and Grind

Dry toasting and grinding spices is the key to getting the most flavour out of your ingredients and into your home cooking...

Step 1: Add your whole spices to a dry pan over a low to medium heat and whilst stirring or shaking the pan, lightly toast them for a few minutes. When you can really smell the aromas and they start to darken, they're ready.

Step 2: Let them cool and then grind.

Step 3: For a finer blend, put them through a sieve before combining with any ground ingredients and herbs.
