Ingredients

  • 10 Bay leaves
  • 6 inch Cinnamon stick
  • 4 Star anise
  • 4 no. Mace (Javitri)
  • 1 piece Nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoon Cloves
  • 2 tablespoon Black peppercorns
  • 4 tablespoons Coriander seeds (sabut dhaniya)
  • 2 tablespoon Cumin seeds
  • 2 tablespoon Shahi jeera (kala jeera or black cumin seeds)
  • 1 tablespoon Fennel seeds
  • 30 Green cardamoms
  • 6 Black cardamoms
  • 2 tablespoon Red chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder

Instructions

  • Take all the whole spices (except spices powders - red chili and turmeric powder) in a pan.
  • Dry roast them with stirring constantly for 2-3 minutes on LOW heat. We are not looking for any color, just to remove any moisture if there is any. Instead you can sun dry them.
  • Once cooled, grind into fine powder along with red chili powder and turmeric.
  • Store in airtight container.
  • Use in making any biryani or pulao.
