Ingredients:


1 teaspoon cumin seeds

1 teaspoon coriander seeds

1 teaspoon cayenne powder

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon turmeric

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

1 tablespoon chopped lemon grass

2 tablespoons chopped shallots

1 tablespoon garlic chopped
 

Preparation / Directions:


Place the cumin and coriander seeds in a pan without adding any oil. Dry fry them, stirring, over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes until they are slightly browned, and give off a roasted aroma. Grind the toasted seeds in a spice grinder. Pound all the ingredients together with a little water to produce a medium thick paste. You can pound the spice mix in a mortar and pestle or you can use a mini-food processor. Make a lot of the paste and save it for use in other curries. Store paste in the refrigerator.
