Name: Garam Masala
Ingredients: 1/2 tsp ground green cardamom; 1/2 tbsp ground black cardamom; 3 tsps cinnamon (2 sticks); 1 tbsp cloves (15 cloves); 1 tbsp coriander seeds; 1 tbsp cumin seeds; 1 tsp grated nutmeg; 1 tbsp whole black peppercorns; 3 tsps whole dried red chiles

Ingredients

1/2 tsp ground green cardamom

1/2 tbsp ground black cardamom

3 tsps cinnamon (2 sticks)

1 tbsp cloves (15 cloves)

1 tbsp coriander seeds

1 tbsp cumin seeds

1 tsp grated nutmeg

1 tbsp whole black peppercorns

3 tsps whole dried red chiles

Directions

1.	Carefully, heat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until fully heated and slightly smoking.
2.	Add all ingredients and shake and stir for about a minute, or until the spices smell toasted, are slightly darker, and give off just a slight bit of smoke. Remove from the heat and let cool.
3.	Grind to a fine powder in a spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle, and store in an air-tight container.
4.	Note: this is not a very spicy mix; use it for flavor not heat. This is also infinitely adjustable; if you don't like certain flavors or want to adjust their intensity, just play with the proportions of the spices.
