| Madras Curry Powder |
The madras curry powder is one spice blend which is available in all grocery stores.Ive bought this once but completely unsatisfied with the freshness.
So I decided to make my own curry powder and found this recipe in food.com
I halved the recipe.
Ingredients:
Coriander Seeds - 4 Tablespoon
Cumin seeds - 3 Tablespoon
Mustard seeds -1/2 Tablespoon
Fennel seeds - 1/2 Tablespoon
Cinnamon stick - 3 inches
Peppercorns - 4 Tablespoon
Nutmeg - 1/2 Tablespoon
Cloves - 5
Cardamom pods - 6
Turmeric - 1 Tablespoon
Ground Ginger - 1 Tablespoon
Chili powder - 1 Tablespoon
Method:
In a dry skillet over very low heat, place the coriander, cumin,
mustard and fennel seeds. Roast the seeds gently, shaking the pan
occasionally, until they begin to pop. When about half the seeds have
popped, add the cinnamon, peppercorns, nutmeg, cloves, cardamom,
turmeric, ginger and chillipowder.
Continue to heat and stir gently until the mixture is quite hot but not burnt.
Pour into a dry blender or food processor, or use a mortar and pestle. Grind into a fine powder.
Pour into a clean, dry jar, seal, and let it cool before using.
