Homemade Garam masala powder is indeed a much needed condiment in almost every Indian kitchen. I have bought ready made packets a couple of times, but I am not satisfied, because sometimes the aroma will be missing or it get lost within 15 days itself, so I have to discard the powder. Whenever I prepare this masala the whole house will be filled with the aroma for few hours and it’s quiet cheap too. Garam Masala Recipe can be used to prepare veg biryani, paneer butter masala, veg korma, aloo gobi, Punjabi Samosa and the list is endless. Ok, let’s see the preparation….

Tips
1. Always use good quality and fresh spices to get a flavourful garam masala recipe.
2. Also clean the spices once before roasting, to get rid of stones and dust.
3. Instead of dry roasting, all the spices can be sun dried for 2 days and then grinded.
4. If preparing in bulk, you can grind it in flour mill also.
5. Even 1 small piece of dry ginger and 4 black cardamom can be added for more aroma. But sift it once and then store it.
6. Ensure you store this homemade garam masala powder in a dry, clean and airtight container.
7. Don’t use wet spoon when using the powder, else it gets spoiled easily.
8. Shelf life of this masala is 2 months when kept outside in a hygenic condition.
9. For a longer shelf life, store it in a ziplock cover and refrigerate it. It can be used for 6 months.
