Garam Masala No5
Ingredients
1/2 cup black pepper
6 tbsp dark caraway seeds
2 1/2 tbsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup coriander
2 1/2 tbsp ground cloves
2 tbsp cardamom seeds
Preparation
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.
