Ingredients

1/4 cup green cardamom pods

4 black cardamom pods

3 large cinnamon sticks, preferably Ceylon, broken into pieces

2 tablespoons whole cloves

Directions

  1. Shell the cardamom: Gently crack open the green and black cardamom pods with a mortar and pestle (or crush them on a cutting board using a heavy pan). Remove the seeds and discard the husks.
  2. Grind the spices: Finely grind the cardamom seeds, cinnamon sticks and cloves in a spice or coffee grinder. Store in an airtight container away from direct sunlight for up to 1 year.

This is a delicious Garam Masala recipe. I have used it in Aarti's Chicken Tikka Masala recipe many times and have gotten rave reviews when I've served it.  It takes some time to shell the green cardamom pods, but I find it's worth it for the authentic flavor that it gives your recipes.  The black cardamom pods are easier to break open and have less seeds in them.
