Garam Masala ingredients
1 x Tablespoon freshly ground cumin seeds - see important note below
1 x Tablespoon green cardamon pods - freshly ground
1 x Tablespoon freshly ground coriander seeds
1 x Teaspoon cloves freshly ground
2 x Teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 x Teaspoon nutmeg
2 x Teaspoons black pepper
Note. You may wish to add star anise and fennel to your mix. Both need to be freshly ground
After toasting and grinding of the spices place all the ingredients in a small bowl, mix well then store in a sealed jar
Important: The cumin, coriander and cardamom must be freshly toasted and ground for best flavour. Pre ground spices lose their flavour very quickly.
Comments: The above ingredients should be adjusted to your personal taste in particular the black pepper
