Ingredients: BASIC CURRY POWDER
3 tsp turmeric
2 tsp coriander
3/4 tsp yellow mustard
1/2 tsp ginger
1/2 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp fenugreek
1 1/2 tsp cumin
1 tsp cardamom
1/4 tsp mixed spice - see notes
Measure the spices out into an airtight jar. (I used a bowl, mixed well, then put in jar)
Close the lid and shake well. Store in a cool dry place. Note: Mixed spice is made up of cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice. If it is unavailable a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice can be used instead. Credit: www.sprinklesandsprouts.com
JAMAICAN CURRY POWDER
2½ Tbsp ground turmeric
1 Tbsp ground coriander seeds
1 Tbsp cumin seeds
2 tsp Allspice
2 tsp ground ginger
2 tsp dry yellow mustard seeds
2 tsp ground fenugreek seeds
1½ tsp white or black pepper
1 whole dried clove (use about ¼ tsp ground)
1 tsp ground nutmeg (optional)
½ tsp ground cayenne pepper
If using whole grain, lightly toast, on low heat, in a fry pan about 3-5 minutes, just until the spices are nice and toasty. Grind in a coffee grinder when cooled. Note: You may skip the toasting and just grind all the spices. Store in an airtight container for up to 6 months. If you can't find these spices at your local grocery store, your best bet would be Indian Markets. Credit: africanbites.com

Directions: |
Directions:Place a dry pan over a medium heat. Once warm, dry-roast all spices apart from the cinnamon and turmeric. Keep roasting for three or four minutes, stirring constantly until the spices start to brown. Do not leave the spices unattended as they would easily burn. Once cooled, place all spices including the turmeric and cinnamon into a blender or pestle & mortar and grind to a fine powder. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place and use as needed.
