Garam Masala

 

One of my favorite Indian dishes is Chicken Tikka Masala and it's made using the following spice blend called Garam Masala. 

4 tsp ground cumin

1 1/2 tsp ground coriander

1 1/2 tsp cardamom 

1 1/2 tsp pepper

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground cloves

1/4 tsp nutmeg

1/4 tsp chili flakes

combine all ingredients in a mortar and pestle and grind up until powder forms, then store in an airtight jar for 6 months.
