Notes

  • Slow roasting – I usually roast all spices on low flame, roasting slowly brings out flavor, if you roast fast they can burn quickly. So make sure to roast slowly and individually as each ones takes different time to get roasted.
  • Balancing chilies – I have used both byadgi and guntur. You can adjust according to your taste.
  • Cooling before grinding – I always cool the roasted spices fully before grinding, else it becomes sticky and powder won’t stay fresh for long.
  • Storage jars – You can store in clean glass jars or even steel box.
  • Coarse or fine grind – I prefer grinding it little coarse, it gives nice texture when mixed in rice, you can grind fine also if you like smooth masala.
