Garam masala is one of the key ingredients in Indian cuisine, but rather than being a type of spice, it is actually a special blend of spices. It has been said that many Indian households have their own top secret mix of garam masala. Ours is secret too, but what we can tell you is it contains the luscious flavours of cinnamon, cardamom blended with other authentic spices, & it does makes a truly tasty dish.
