Curry Powder
- 1/8 cup whole cardamom pod (white or green)
- 1/2 tablespoon whole brown mustard seeds
- 1/2 tablespoon fenugreek seeds
- 1/2 tablespoon fennel seed
- 1/2 teaspoon whole caraway seed
- 1 tablespoon whole coriander seed
- 1 tablespoon whole cumin seed
- 1 tablespoon ground turmeric
- 1/2 tablespoon ground ginger
- 1/2 tablespoon dried red chili pepper flakes
- Pre-heat oven to 350u0b0F.
- De-husk the cardamom seeds. Discard the shells and gather enough of the little seeds that are inside to fill a half tablespoon.
- Place the cardamom, brown mustard, fenugreek, fennel, caraway, coriander and cumin seeds in a cake pan and bake the spices 5 to 7 minutes or until the aroma fills your kitchen! Take care not to burn them as they will turn bitter!
- Cool these down completely.
- Next, place the cooled toasted spices in the grinder and add the ground turmeric, ginger and red chili pepper flakes.
- Pulverize until powder.
- Pour through a funnel into a clean dry spice bottle and store in your pantry away from direct sunlight.
- Use in recipes that call for curry powder.
