Curry Powder is a mixture of spices blended together. The traditional Indian name for a mixture of spices is “Masala”. These mixtures vary from region to region in India.

It is thought that when the British colonised India they brought back with them a blend of spices. Traditional Indian cuisines do not use one single mixture to flavour their food. However curry powder is a convenient way to add the aromatic flavours to dishes.

Curry became more widely eaten in Britain during the 19th and 20th centuries, becoming particularly popular during the 1970’s.

Garam Masala is a delicate medium curry blend. It contains cumin, peppercorns, nemeg, cardamon, casis and cloves.

It can be mixed with coconut milk or tomatoes to make a medium curry or added to dishes or marinades to give a spicy flavour.
