 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    6      Tbsp          Ccoriander Seeds
    4      Tbsp          Cummin Seeds
    7                    Dried Chiles
      3/4  Tbsp          Whole Black Peppercorns
      3/4  Tbsp          Black Mustard Seeds
    2      Tbsp          Ground Turmeric
    2      Tbsp          ground fenugreek
 
 Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.  Line a baking pan with foil and place
 the whole spices in separate heaps upon it  (this is done so that you
 can remove the smaller spices as they are ready). Place the pan on the
 top shelf of the oven until the spices become aromatic and are slightly
 browned.  Do not over-roast them.
 
 Place the roasted spices  (in several batches) into the spice grinder, a
 blender or a mortar; grind or pound to a fine powder.  accumulate them
 in a storage jar.  Add the pre-ground turmeric and fenugreek; cap the jar and s
 kake until the spices are welll mixed.
