Chili Seasoning Mix - A Simple Yet
Tasty Blend of Spices and Peppers

Whilst it's easy to pick up a chilli seasoning mix from the store, I recommend having a go at making your own. It's so simple and you get to choose what goes in. Fancy a bit of heat? Use hot peppers like birds eye or jalapenos. Fancy a milder blend? Use a milder pepper like anchos.

What You'll Need: (makes about 8 tablespoons)

Half a cup dried chilli peppers (any kind - hot or mild)
OR 8 tbsp flakes
3 tbsp cumin seeds
2 tbsp fenugreek seeds
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp oregano
1 tbsp black peppercorns
2 tsp sea salt

tbsp = tablespoon
tsp = teaspoon

Directions:

  • Grind the peppers/flakes, cumin, fenugreek, salt and peppercorns
  • Sieve into a bowl. (if you prefer a coarser mix, don't sieve)
  • Stir in the garlic
  • Finally, crumble in the oregano and stir again

Store this chilli powder recipe in an airtight container out of direct sunlight and preferably in a cool place. Use within 6 months.
