LANDSDALE CURRY POWDERCurries in India at least are usually named for their place of origin, so I couldn’t help
myself, this is a Landsdale Curry Powder…it is semi-authentic, leaning towards a Madras, but is not hot enough for that. I invented it for the shortbread recipe,
but we are using it elsewhere as well. Very mild, add heat as desired.
NEED • 2 tsp coriander seeds • 2 tsp cumin seeds • 1 tsp fennel seeds • ½ tsp yellow mustard seeds • 1 cinnamon stick, broken into
pieces • 10 peppercorns
• 1 tsp freshly grated nutmeg • ½ tsp whole cloves • 2 tsp ground cardamom • 2 tsp ground ginger • ¼ tsp turmeric • Pinch ground chillies (optional)
DO • Place all ingredients into a dry fry pan and toast over high heat until the
spices just start smoking. Remove from heat immediately and allow to cool.
• Place into TM bowl and mill 40 sec/speed 10. • Store in airtight container until use. • This recipe can easily be doubled.

I am pretty sure this would also be amazing with minced chicken, though I am yet to try it…but I have no reason to think not…If you are struggling to source the pepper
powder, use chilli flakes as opposed to cayenne pepper.
