Tips and Techniques
- Use fresh, dried herbs and spices for the best results. For even more intense flavor, heat whole spices in a dry pan over low heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant. Be very careful not to burn them. Remove the spices from the pan to cool before grinding.
- For a spicy curry, add cayenne pepper. Start with 1/4 teaspoon for a milder spice and build, as desired, for spicier curry.
- If you don’t have or don’t like an ingredient, you can easily adjust this recipe to suite your own tastes.
- Use a spice or coffee grinder, food processor, or mortar and pestle to grind the spices finer, if needed.
