A spicy blend used in Indian food-particularly in Sana's Fruit Chaat (Fruit Chaat ( Fruit Salad )). It will keep for ages. In a pinch, caraway seeds may be substituted for the ajwain.
Ingredients:
4 tablespoons coriander seeds
2 tablespoons cumin seeds
1 teaspoon ajwain (thymol)
2 -3 whole dried red chilies
3 tablespoons black salt, crystals
1/2 teaspoon citric acid
1 tablespoon mango powder (amchoor)
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons garam masala
1 teaspoon white pepper (or black) (optional)
Directions:
1. Roast the first 3 ingredients separately in a dry saute pan over medium high heat until they become aromatic-do not burn.
2. Grind them with the chillies, black salt and citric acid until a powder.
3. Mix in the remaining ingredients.
4. Store in an airtight container.
