About Kerala Garam Masala
Kerala Garam Masala Powder is a version of the popular Indian spice mix garam masala prepared in the state of Kerala, India. It is immensely used in Kerala recipes and is known for its fantastic taste. Since I love Kerala cuisine and keep making many dishes from it, I thought of making a batch of this spice mix to elevate the taste of my recipes. Made with a mix of roasted fennel seeds, cloves, black peppercorns, cinnamon, nutmeg, star anise, and green cardamoms, a pinch of this spice powder is enough to transport you to the seventh heaven with its flavors. No Malabar recipe is complete without a dash of homemade garam masala sprinkled over it. Make sure all the spices are of the best quality. Buy the spices from a trusted seller. Sometimes, the oils are extracted from spices, and the poor-quality stuff is sold in markets.
¼ cup fennel seeds 30-35 cloves 30-35 whole black peppercorns 2 cinnamon sticks, crushed 1 whole star anise 50-55 whole green cardamoms 1 whole nutmeg, crushed 1 whole mace flower
Add them to a grinder and grind them to make a fine powder. Store the garam masala in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a month.
