3 oz coriander seeds
1 oz cumin seeds
1/4 oz fenugreek seeds
1 oz cloves
2 oz cardamon seeds (brown best)
1/4 teaspoon mace
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 oz cinnamon
1 oz black pepper
Roast coriander seeds, cumin, and fenugreek seeds separately for a few minutes until their rich aroma is given off. Combine with all other ingredients and grind.
Pass the mixture through a sieve and store in an airtight jar.
NOTE: Roasting the ingredients separately is important since each gives off its characteristic aroma at a different time.
