**** GARAM MASALA is usually used in Indian cooking..... I have all the spices here at home, but when I first started Indian cooking I just bought GARAM MASALA at the international market..
2

heat a dry heavy bottom skillet... let it get warm where u can feel the heat coming off the skillet.
3

add cinnamon sticks, bay leaves, and the black cardamom in the hot dry skilket. stir until you can smell the aroma....about 2 minutes..
4

add the other spices and keep a close eye so they don't burn... I never cook higher than med- Med/high....
