Recipe For Indian Spice - Add the Superb
Flavours of India to Your Home Cooking

Making your own homemade Indian spice is highly recommended, especially if you want to recreate the taste and quality you'll find at a top quality Indian restaurant. Below is a fairly complex blend which I think goes a long way to replicating those authentic flavours.

What You'll Need: (makes approx 10-11 tablespoons)

4 tbsp coriander seeds
2 tbsp cumin seeds
1 tbsp mustard seeds
1 tbsp cubebs (or black peppercorns)
1 tbsp fenugreek seeds
1 tbsp turmeric 
4 tsp garlic powder
4 tsp paprika 
2-3 tsp chili powder
1 tsp asafoetida 
1 tsp ginger powder
15-20 curry leaves
Seeds from 6 green cardamom pods

tbsp = tablespoon
tsp = teaspoon

Directions:

  • Grind the cardamom, coriander, cumin, fenugreek and mustard seeds cubebs and curry leaves

  • Add to a bowl

  • Add the pre-ground powders and combine thoroughly

Store your Indian seasoning in a cool place in an airtight jar and out of direct sunlight. Use within 6 months.
