ABOUT THIS RECIPE
"My take on Cape Malay curry powder; I devised this when I nally nished
my precious box of this type of curry powder, that had been sent to me in a
Herbs and Spices swap by Zurie! I checked the ingredients list and nally

after a little trial and error, I came up with this, and it is a pretty close
match! Influenced by Malay cuisine, Cape/Malay curry powder/masala is a
blend of sweet and pungent spices to include cloves, cardamon, fennel, mustard, coriander, turmeric,
fenugreek, a little chilli and black pepper. A curry powder/masala of a mild heat yet full of the flavours
you expect in Indian curry. This curry spice mix is wonderful in all types of curries, but especially
authentic Cape Malay style cuisine, and of course curries."
INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon clove
1/2 cup coriander seed
1 tablespoon fennel seed
1 tablespoon black mustard seeds
3 tablespoons fenugreek seeds
2 tablespoons black peppercorns
3 small dried hot red chilies, seeds and stems removed
3 tablespoons cumin seeds
1/4 cup ground cardamom
1/4 cup ground turmeric
1 tablespoon ground ginger
2 curry leaves, chopped into small pieces
DIRECTIONS
1.Place all the whole seeds in a frying pan and dry roast for a minute or two, until they become
pungent and release their fragrance. Place them in a food processor or coffee grinder and pulse
until they are finely ground - or grind them with a pestle and mortar.
2.Add the remaining ground spices, including the chillies and the curry leaves, to the roasted spices
and mix well.
3.Store in an airtight jar or tin for up to 6 months, in a dry, cool and dark place.
