I didn't have any garam masala on hand, and I needed some to use in Recipe#397640, so I made this. A little bit heavy on the coriander for me, but it worked very well in the curry. I used green cardamom (seeds only), and I used a gourmet mix of peppercorns because I was out of plain black ones. Nice and mild, too, which was good, because the curry I was using it in was spicy enough already. Thanks for posting :)! Made for The Queens of Quisine for ZWT6 Family Picks

Thank you Scoutie, this is just the recipe I needed to coplet recipe #397640. I started off trying to use my food processor without much luck. Decided to pull out my spice grinder and that did the trick. I've never cooked with Garam Masala before, but the dish I used this in came out delicious so I'd have to give this 5 stars!

I joined Recipezaar to learn new recipes that are home cooked. I grew up having ready-meals like Encor and Stouffers and needed recipes that don't simply require opening a box and plopping in the oven! I enjoy cooking when I have the time to try new dishes. I make every recipe as written if I'm reviewing it to give a true review. If I make alterations that aren't in the directions, I don't feel it's a true reflection of the recipe; it's another recipe to me.
