Home-Made Garam Masala [Video]
The easiest, and the most authentic Homemade Indian Garam Masala recipe you will ever taste--in just 5 minutes.
Servings: 1 cup
Equipment
- Coffee grinder (Don't ruin your good coffee grinder! A cheap grinder re-purposed for grinding spices is all you need.)
- Collapsible Silicone Funnel (or a cheap equivalent)
- Measuring cups
- Measuring spoons
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Coriander Seeds
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- ½ teaspoon Whole Cloves
- ½ teaspoon Cardamom Seeds
- 2 Bay Leaves
- 3 Dried Red Chilis (the kind you put on pizza)
- 2 inch Cinnamon stick
Instructions
- Put all ingredients into a clean coffee grinder and grind until it's a coarse-fine powder. Shake it about during grinding so all the seeds and bits get under the blades.
- When you're finished, unplug the grinder, and turn it upside down. You want all the spice to collect into the lid so you can easily scoop it out without cutting yourself playing about around the blades.
- You're done.
