Garam masala #5

6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
½ cup Black Pepper
6 tablespoons Dark Caraway Seeds
2½ tablespoon Ground Cinnamon
½ cup Coriander
2½ tablespoon Ground Cloves
2 tablespoons Cardamom Seeds

Directions

Pick over the ingredients and remove any husks or strawy bits. Grind together in a blender or finely adjusted coffee grinder. Do not make the mixture too fine. Stor in an airtight container and keep for use in the recipes.

NOTE: This Garam masala is fragrant and strong. Its robust flavour goes well with meat, fried and braised foods. Try it sprinkled on fried potatoes, with a pinch of tumeric. Sprinkle a lttle on yogurt, sour cream and curd cheeses.
