Recipe Introduction
Chana masala powder is bought of the shelf from the grocers. However this would be my version of the compound mix:
List of Ingredients
cumin seeds - 100gms
black cardamom - 10 gms
yellow cardamom - 5 gms
black peppercorns - 25 gms
dried red chillies - 5 gms
dried ginger/soonth - large pinch
mace - 2- 3 nos
grated nutmeg - 1/4 no
cloves - 5 gms
cinnamon - 5gms
amchur powder - 5gms (optional) Recipe
Roast cumin seeds till dark brown. Roast all other spices except nutmeg, ginger and amchur powder collectively in a warm oven till light brown. Pound to a fine powder.
This mix does not in any way resemble the ready to use stuff
