Recipe Notes

Garam Masala is a traditional mix of spices used in South East Asian cooking. The basic ingredients are cloves, cinnamon, star anise, cardamom and nutmeg. Depending on various regions, some cooks in India add bay leaves, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, black pepper, ginger powder and fenugreek seeds too for making garam masala. This is a spice which can be totally tweaked according to your taste. A recipe for homemade garam masala can be found on the website under  the  spices category.
