Instructions

Whole Spices

  1. Toast the chiles in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds, shaking the pan to move around. Add the cassia bark (cinnamon stick), cardamom and peppercorns and toast another 30 seconds.
  2. Next add the coriander, cumin, fennel, fenugreek and black mustard seeds, toast for 1 minute.
  3. Add the Indian Bay leaves, star anise and toast another 30 seconds, stirring often.
  4. Transfer the spices to a plate and let cool completely.
  5. Transfer to a spice grinder. Add the dried curry leaves, turmeric and cayenne powder. Grind to a fine powder.
  6. Store in an airtight container and use within three months for maximum freshness.

Ground Spices

  1. Toast the chiles in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds, shaking the pan to move around.
  2. Add the Indian Bay leaves, star anise and toast another 30 seconds, stirring often.

Notes

  • The Indian Bay Leaf (Teja Patta), comes from the cassia tree and tastes more like cinnamon. I don't recommend substituting it with the laurel bay leaf in Indian cooking. If Indian Bay Leaf is unavailable, it's best to leave it out altogether, although you can substitute it with a little cinnamon, or an extra clove if a recipe calls for it.
  • Nutritional information is based on 1 cup total.
  • HEAT ALERT!! This is not for the faint of heart. You can alter the heat by adding more or less cayenne, but this is supposed to be a spicy, hot curry powder. For a lesser heat version, try my Madras Curry Powder or my all-purpose Curry Powder.
