I started out with an Americanised recipe (not enough chilli) and then reached out to a Trinidadian friend of mine now liming in Barbuda and we eventually narrowed in on this recipe, which is probably as authentic as you can get.
Ingredients:
1 tbsp cumin seeds
1/2 tbsp coriander seeds
1/2 tbsp cloves
1/2 tsp yellow mustard seeds
1/2 tsp black peppercorns
1/2 tsp allspice berries
1/2 tsp fenugreek seeds
2 tbsp ground turmeric
1 tbsp hot chilli powder (dried and ground habanero chillies)
1/2 tbsp ground ginger
1/2 tbsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp dried oregano
Method:
Place a small frying pan over medium heat. Once hot use to individually toast the whole spices for about 60-90 seconds, turning the pan until they are aromatic and slightly darkened (not not let them burn). As each spice is toasted turn out onto a plate then add the next spice.
Once the spices have cooled turn into a spice or coffee grinder. Pulse to chop then add all the ground spices. Run the grinder until you have a fine powder. Transfer to a jar, seal the lid and store in a cool, dark cupboard.
The curry spice blend will keep for up to three months.
