Garam Masala

8 ingredients
2 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons whole cumin seeds
  • 2 tablespoons whole coriander seeds
  • 1 tablespoon black peppercorns
  • one 2-inch cinnamon stick
  • 12 whole cloves
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon black cardamom seeds
  • 1 teaspoon green cardamom seeds

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and then add all the spices and toast gently by rotating the pan until the spices begin to toast and release the fragrance. This should take about 2 minutes. Be carefully not to burn the spices-if they burn discard and start fresh.
  2. 2
    Transfer the toasted spices to a spice mill or a mortar and pestle. Grind until a fine powder is obtained. Store the spice mix in an airtight container for up to six months in a cool dark place.
