Homemade Curry Powder

-

Why make your own curry powder?

If you have trouble with a sensitive stomach, store bought curry powder might not be for you.  Some people have trouble digesting onion powder or garlic powder, so making your own is the best option. 

Whatever your reason, it's very simple to do.

Ingredients

  • Coriander x 4 tbsp
  • Cumin x 2.5 tbsp
  • Turmeric x 2.5 tbsp
  • Ginger x 1 tbsp
  • Paprika x 2 tsp
  • Chilli powder x 2 tsp (if you want it hot, use 3 tsp. If you like it mild, use 1 tsp)
  • Black pepper x 1.5 tsp
  • Salt x 1 tsp (optional)
  • Cinnamon x 1 tsp
  • Ground fenugreek x 1 tsp
  • Dried fenugreek x 1 tsp
  • Cardamom x 1 tsp
  • Clove x 1/2 tsp

Method

Mix all the ingredients together with a spoon and store in an airtight container. I usually mix them into the pot I will be storing them in and give it a shake with the lid on at the end just to be sure. 

I hope you decide to give this a try. If you do, please let me know what you thought in the comments below.  Please like, share with your friends and subscribe.

Written by  McDonald, T.    |  Updated 24th of March 2024 Yorkshire puddings are a tasty part of Sunday dinner in the UK not to mention Christmas and Easter.  With this in mind, a vegan alternative is required to satisfy the patriots dinner plate.  I looked for a long time and tried many different recipes, but in the end I had to alter the best basic vegan recipe to make it perfect.

Written by McDonald, T.   |  Date 23rd of December 2022   Getting frustrated with the lack of vegan options lately?  Well, this one is so easy to solve.  It has just four ingredients and is ready in minutes, and you can make it as strong as you like.  In addition, it goes great with Christmas pudding or Christmas cake and is fine hot or cold. Notes I used almond milk because almond and brandy flavours go nicely together. Keeps for about a week in an airtight container in the fridge. Check the brandy is vegan. Makes 5 – 6 servings. Time, 10 minutes.   Ingredients 400 ml of vegan milk 60 g of sugar 25 g of cornflour 6 tbsp of brandy Method Except for 2 tablespoons of the vegan milk, boil the milk with the sugar while stirring until the sugar has dissolved.  Take off the heat. Mix the cornflour with the remaining milk and whisk it into the hot milk and sugar and put back on the heat. Keep whisking. Bring back to the boil and remove.  Stir in th...
