Jamaican Curry Powder

Ingredients

• 2½ tbsp ground turmeric
• 1 tbsp ground coriander seeds
• 1 tbsp cumin seeds
• 2 tbsp allspice
• 2 tbsp ground ginger
• 2 tbsp yellow mustard seeds (dry)
• 2 tbsp ground fenugreek seeds
• 1½ tbsp black pepper
• About ¼ tsp ground clove (from 1 whole dried clove)
• 1 tsp ground nutmeg
• 2 dried Carolina Reaper chilis (or substitute 1 tsp cayenne for less heat)
• ½ tsp mace

Recipe

1. Combine all ground spices in a bowl and stir to blend.
2. For a fresher flavour, grind whole cumin seeds, coriander seeds, and mustard seeds in a spice grinder before combining with the other spices.
3. For dried whole chilis, grind them into a powder in a spice grinder. Use caution — wear gloves when handling Carolina Reapers.
4. Store in an airtight jar away from light and heat. Use within 3 months for best potency.
