Lisa's Garam Masala

My husband and I enjoy cooking and wanted to try our hand at Indian food.  I knew that store bought Garam Masala had spices that my family didn't like so I made my own.

Ingredients

1/2 cup cumin seeds

1/2 cup corriander seeds

2 tablespoons brown mustard seeds

2 tablespoons allspice

3 cinnamon sticks

2 bay leaves

5 cloves

4 pods green cardamom

Directions

Preheat oven to 325

Combine everything on a baking sheet and toast in oven for 15 minutes

Grind to a powder in a mortar and pestle or with an electric spice grinder.  Store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.

Enjoy.
