1tsp                  Steenbergs garam masala

½tsp                 Freshly milled Indian black pepper

½tsp                 Natural sea salt

 

Dry fry (or brown in the oven) the coriander seeds, then grind them in a pestle and mortar or electric coffee grinder.  Add the garlic and ginger and mash to a paste.
