3 tsp cumin
3 tsp coriander
2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp cardamom
1 tsp cloves
1 tsp cinnamon (1-inch)
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
Place first 6 ingredients in a skillet over medium high heat. Stir constantly until spices smoke, become fragrant, and turn dark (about 3-5 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in nutmeg. If still whole, process in a spice/coffee grinder until a powder forms.
