This is a classic North Indian spice blend for use in making rajmah (red kidney bean) curries. However, the blend will also work well with lentil (dal) curries.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 tbsp cumin seeds
1 tbsp coriander seeds
1 tbsp fenugreek seeds
3cm length of cinnamon, crumbled
2 tsp cloves
2 tsp black peppercorns
2 tsp green cardamom pods, crushed
1/2 tsp ground ginger
2 tsp hot chilli powder (or to taste)
Method:
Separately toast the cumin seeds, coriander seeds, fenugreek seeds, cinnamon, cloves, black peppercorns and green cardamom pods in a dry frying pan for about 1 to 2 minutes each, or until aromatic.
When done, combine all the spices in a spice grinder or coffee grinder. Render to a fine powder and store in a sealed jar until needed.
