I make this simple masala primarily for use in simple, mild, curries (e.g. korma, tikka masala, etc). 

It is easy to make and can be used whenever a recipe calls for a "spice mix", "mix powder", "curry powder", etc.

The following (using teaspoon - "tsp" - measures) makes sufficient masala for around 12 single portion curries.

Ingredients:

4 tsp turmeric powder
3 tsp coriander powder
2 tsp cumin powder
3 tsp paprika powder

Method:

Simply mix all of the ingredients and store in a dry, sterile, airtight container in a cool, dark place.

Notes:

  • Commercial spice powders can be used, but it is better to dry roast and grind the cumin and coriander seeds
  • You can use larger measures (e.g. tablespoons), for larger quantities, if you wish, provided you keep the ratios of ingredients the same
