Garam Masala - Lawson Recipe - Cooking Index
| 2 1/2 cups | Coriander seeds | |
| 1 cup | Cumin seeds | |
| 1/4 lb | Large cardamoms | |
| 1/2 cup | Cinnamon | |
| 2/3 cup | Cloves | |
| 1 cup | Peppercorns | |
| 1 tablespoon | Grated nutmeg |
Roast the coriander and cumin seeds, separately, in a warm oven or under a low grill for about 3 to 5 minutes, shaking them round constantly if under a grill. This is to make them easier to grind and the seeds should not burn. Peel the cardamoms and remove the husks. Grind all the spices in a blender or finely adjusted coffee grinder. Store in an airtight container. Use as directed in the recipes.
