method
to make garam masala
1. Grind all the spices in a coffee grinder, or liquidiser until a fine powder is obtained.
2. When made, this spice should be stored in a tightly lidded glass container, away from light and heat.
3. Only make small quantities which will be used up fairly quickly, as the spice becomes less aromatic with age.
