The second attempt of creating my own version of curry.

The recipe is usually enough for 4-6 people, depending on the recipe.

Ingredients

v2.0 v2.1
pepper corns 0.15g 0.15g
green cardamom 0.25g 0.25g
coriander seeds 1.50g 1.50g
cumin seeds 1.00g 1.00g
turmeric powder 0.80g 0.80g
chili/paprika 1.50g 1.50g
brown mustard seeds 1.20g 1.20g
fenugreek seeds 0.75g 0.50g
lime leaves (fresh) 0.5g

Notes:

  • the fenugreek seeds is a very typical ingredient for indian curry, though might not be to your taste.
  • the lime leaves are not an usual ingredient, but I just like their taste a lot
  • you can vary the spice level of your curry by using paprika or chilies.

v2.0

Instructions

Heat up the hard ingredients in a pan (without oil!) until it starts smelling. I only had frozen lime leaves so I also let it dry in the pan. Grind everything to a nice powder. Sift if necessary.

Versions

2.0

Default curry.

2.1

A more european version with less fenugreek seeds and no lime leaves. Especially later one does make a difference if used in other recipes (eg: sauces and dips).

Usage

Indian dishes, sauces, dips,…
