Masala Spice Blend - An Traditional Mix of Spices
For Authentic Indian Flavours and Aromas

If you're after true Indian flavours, then this masala spice blend is one I recommend. A fairly basic mix, it'll still add authentic flavours and mouthwatering aromas to a whole host of homemade Indian dishes. And from start to finish you can have it made in less than 5-10 minutes or so!

What You'll Need: (makes about 10 tablespoons)

3 tbsp coriander seeds
2 tbsp cumin seeds
1 tbsp black peppercorns
1 tbsp fenugreek seeds
1 tbsp chili powder
2 tsp mustard powder
2 tsp ginger powder
1 tsp whole cloves 
2 inch cinnamon stick
6-8 dried bay leaves
Seeds from 6 green cardamom pods

tbsp = tablespoon
tsp = teaspoon

Directions:

  • Break up the cinnamon and crumble the bay
  • Grind the bay and cinnamon pieces along with the coriander, cumin, peppercorns, fenugreek, cloves and cardamom seeds
  • Add to a bowl
  • Finally, add the chili, ginger and mustard powders. Combine thoroughly

Store your masala powder in an airtight container, in a cool place and out of direct sunlight. Use within 3 months before making a fresh amount.
