8 tbsp cumin seeds
8 tbsp coriander seeds
2 tbsp black peppercorns
2 cinnamon sticks, broken into pieces
1 tbsp green cardamom
2 tbsp cloves
2 tbsp ground turmeric

Method:

Place a non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Use to individually toast the whole spices (everything except the turmeric) for about 90 seconds each until aromatic. As each spice is toasted turn out onto a plate to cool.

Once cooled, transfer the whole spices to a spice grinder and render to a powder. Add the turmeric and pulse to combine. Spoon the spice mixture into a jar, secure the lid and store in a cool, dark, cupboard where it will keep for up to a month.
