Vadouvan French-style curry powder, originating from Puducherry, India, is so simple to whip up! It intensifies any Vadouvan dish in spades in comparison to the store-bought alternatives.
Place curry leaves, fenugreek seeds, cumin, cardamom pods, brown mustard seeds, turmeric, nutmeg, red chili powder, cloves, and garlic powder into a mixing bowl.
2. Toast the Spices
Place a sauté pan on the stovetop at medium-low heat. Add the spices and toast them for 30 seconds to 1 minute or until intensely aromatic.
3. Grind the Spices
Pour spices into an electric spice or coffee grinder. Alternatively, you may use a mortar and pestle.
