This authentic garam masala is a cornerstone of Indian cookery, offering a depth of flavour that shop-bought versions simply cannot match. By gently toasting whole spices like cardamom, cloves and cinnamon, you release the essential oils, resulting in a vibrant and aromatic blend. The optional addition of dried rosebuds adds a sophisticated floral note that balances the warmth of the black peppercorns and dried chilli.
As a versatile vegan staple, this homemade spice mix is perfect for seasoning everything from hearty lentil dhals to roasted cauliflower or fragrant vegetable curries. Preparing your own blends at home is an easy way to elevate your cooking while ensuring your pantry is stocked with the freshest ingredients. Simply store the finished powder in a sealed jar to preserve its pungent, earthy character for months.

Ingredients for Garam Masala
1 tablespoon dried miniature rosebuds (optional)
A 1-inch piece cinnamon stick, broken into pieces
2 bay leaves
1/4 cup cumin seeds
1/3 cup coriander seeds
1 tablespoon green cardamom pods
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
2 teaspoons whole cloves
1 dried red chilli
1/4 teaspoons freshly grated nutmeg
1/8 teaspoons ground mace
How to make Garam Masala
If the roses have stems, break them off and discard. Heat the roses with the cinnamon, bay leaves, cumin seeds, coriander seeds, cardamom pods, whole peppercorns, cloves, and chilli in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, stirring often, until the cumin becomes brown, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a spice grinder or coffee mill, add the nutmeg and mace, and grind until powder fine. Store in an airtight container for up to 4 months.
