Equipment

  • Spice/Coffee Grinder

Ingredients
 

  • 4 tablespoon Coriander seeds
  • 2 tablespoon Fennel seeds
  • 2 tablespoon Cumin seeds
  • 1 tablespoon Uncooked rice (basmati)
  • 1 tsp Black peppercorns
  • 1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
  • ½ teaspoon Fenugreek seeds
  • 5 Cloves
  • 5 Cardomom pods shelled
  • 2 sprigs Curry leaves

Instructions
 

  • Heat a fry pan in medium high.
  • Add all the spices, seeds and curry leaves. Keep stirring continously and roast for about 5 minutes or till the cumin seeds turn golden brown and mustard seeds start to splutter. Curry leaves should turn dry and dark.
  • Transfer the spice blend to a plate and let it cool for a minute. Then use a spice or coffee grinder to grind to a smooth powder.
  • Transfer to an airtight container and use a dry spoon when you need to scoop out the curry powder.
  • This makes about ½ cup of curry powder. Double or triple as needed.
