Title: Chaat Masala
Categories: Indian, Spices
Yield: 1 Batch

1 tb Cumin seeds
1 ts Coriander seeds
1/2 ts Fennel seeds
1/2 ts Dried mint
2 ts Black salt (kala namak)
1 tb Mango (amchoor) powder
1/2 ts Black pepper; preferably
- whole
1 ts Kashmiri chili powder
1/2 ts Ginger powder

Roast cumin, coriander, and fennel one after another in a pan until
they turn slightly more brown.

Combine roasted seeds with other spices and grind to a fine powder in
a spice grinder or something similar.

Notes:

This recipe is supposed to include asafoetida powder, but I didn't
have any, so I may update it at a later date.

Roasting the seeds is always better, but it will work with pre-ground
spices as well.
