Easy Indian Curry Masala Powder

Step 1

Measure and keep all your ingredients listed under the Ingredient tab ready.

Step 2

If you don’t find some of these ingredients and want to skip it, then skip using dried fenugreek leaves, white poppy seeds, and Bengal gram dal. However, using these ingredients add another layer of flavor to the homemade curry powder.

Step 3

Heat a frying pan over medium and roast all ingredients one after another except all powders and spices such as red chili powder, garlic powder and turmeric powder.

Step 4

Do not over roast the ingredients, or else the whole spices will burn imparting a bitter taste in the end product.

Step 5

Allow the ingredients to cool down a bit.

Step 6

Add all the spices and ingredients in a spice blender or grinder or food processor.

Step 7

Process, blend or grind for a few minutes until a powder is formed.

Step 8

Use a medium sieve to shift the powder.

Step 9

This is to see if there are any chunks of whole spices. Cinnamon and black cardamoms often leave big unprocessed chunks.

Step 10

Add a pinch of Himalayan pink salt and mix well.

Step 11

Store the powder in an air-tight container.
