Directions
Toast the coriander, bay leaves, cumin, cardamoms, cloves and cinnamon carefully in a heavy frying pan on top of the stove.
Grind up finely in a coffee grinder or blender and combine with the powdered ingredients.
Keeps well in a sealed jar.
Omit the chili and pepper for a blander and more fragrant Garam Masala for delicate dishes.
