Garam Masala

Ingredients for Garam Masala

• 1 tablespoon dried miniature rosebuds (optional)

• A 1-inch piece cinnamon stick, broken into pieces

• 2 bay leaves

• 1/4 cup cumin seeds

• 1 tablespoon green cardamom pods

How to make Garam Masala

If the roses have stems, break them off and discard. Heat the roses with the cinnamon, bay leaves, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, cardamom pods, whole peppercorns, cloves, and chilli in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, stirring often, until the cumin becomes brown, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a spice grinder or coffee mill, add the nutmeg and mace, and grind until powder fine. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 months.
