Garam masala the word itself brings aroma… This is my long time wish to make homemade garam masala. If you are making any gravies or curries with the garam masala, am sure there will be no leftovers. Homemade gives unique flavor and taste to your dish.

Sun-dried spices will give you best taste though roasted also good and aromatic. But now here rainy season, so couldn't sun dry the spices. So I just dry roasted for seconds and blend it. If possible sun dry the spices for 1-2 days and then blend it…
