Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Check all the raw spices to make sure that there are no foreign material (chaffs & husks) in the spices.
  2. Next step is to dry the spices. If you live in a warm climate place with lot of sunlight, then you can leave the spices out in the sun for a day. Alternatively preheat the oven to 200oF. Once it reaches the temperature switch it off. Then spread all the ingredients on a baking sheet and place it inside the oven until all the spices are warm.
  3. Crush big pieces of spices in a mortar and pestle before grinding. This is to make sure that large and hard spices do not damage the grinder jar.
  4. Put all the spices in a dry grinder jar and grind till you get a fine powder. I used Vitamix mixer with dry grains jar.
  5. Sieve the ground mixture to separate out the coarse pieces.
  6. Do not discard the coarse pieces, just reground them or use them in curries that take whole spices.
  7. Your garam masala is ready. Store in an air-tight container in cool and dry place.
