Masala Spice Mix

Masala spice mix is the mix spices which are usually used in Indian recipes which call for masala filling, typically called "bharwan"; which includes "bharwan bhindi", "bharwan karela", "bharwan baingan", "bharwan tinde".. and so on.. So I prepare this spice mix to use for those recipes which call for masala filling. Ideally this masala must be freshly prepared, but can be stored easily just like other spices, if prepared at once. Can be stored in an airtight container or zip-lock bags.

The ingredients which are mixed in this spice mix are:

  1. Salt
  2. Red chilli powder
  3. Turmeric powder
  4. Coriander powder
  5. Cumin powder
  6. Mango powder
  7. Garam masala
  8. Asafoetida (a pinch)
  9. Black pepper powder (a pinch)
  10. Kasoori Methi
Add all ingredients according to taste, because everyone's taste buds differ.. so the proportions can't be fixed. Make sure not to use a lot of asafoetida and black pepper powder though.
