Curry Powder

A curry powder to go with shallow fries... (Apologies for the weird formatting, am posting this from the phone, lest I forget the recipe, as has been the case off late)

Peanuts - 1 Cup
Coriander seeds - 1/2 Cup
Cumin seeds - 1/4 Cup
Red chilli - 5-6 (I use the Byadigi variety)
Sesame seeds - 1/8 Cup
Garlic - 8-10 cloves

Dry roast all ingredients. I roasted peanuts separately and deskinned them and garlic separately and kept aside. The rest of the ingredients can be roasted together.

Let these cool and grind them together.

This powder can be stored in the refrigerator for at least a week.

I shallow fried Kandola(aa kakarakaya)and added this as masala.I also intend to use this as curry masala for another stir fry with coconut milk ala Thai style later this week.
