Sri Lankan Curry Powder by rockonaudi

This is great rubbed on Salmon and other Seafood, or Chicken...

Sri Lankan Curry Powder (Makes 12 Tbsp)

6 tbsp. coriander seeds
3 tbsp. cumin seeds
1 tbsp. fennel seeds
1 tsp. fenugreek seeds
5 cm/2 in piece cinnamon stick
1 tsp. cloves
8 green cardamoms
6 dried curry leaves
1-2 tsp. chili powder
1. Dry-fry or roast the coriander, cumin, fennel and fenugreek separately because they turn dark at different stages. Deep-fry or roast the cinnamon stick, cloves and cardamom together until they give off a spicy aroma.

2. Remove the seeds from the cardamom podd and grind all the ingredients with the curry leaves and chili powder to a fine powder.

* ok, that's the recipe as it's written... you can substitute
Dried Cilantro leaves for the coriander seed
Plain store-bought curry powder if you don't have the dried leaves...
and you can use powders of any of those seeds ..
just remember that powdered is a different measured amt and so are the leaves so have to adjust accordingly...

AND

I don't usually bother dry-roasting I just grind the seeds & cinn stix together then add the powdered ones and mix. It has an odd smell but it is fantastic! Even made with this simple variation...

That's it! Enjoy!!!!
