Hi.

I was just looking at this recipe for curry powder as I want to make some.

http://www.mamtaskitchen.com/recipe_display.php?id=10331

I noticed there are 3 cardamom amounts, I thought there were only 2 types, brown and green. Can anyone clarify for me?

Thanks.

I see only 2;

1 tea cup or 40-50 gm. coriander seeds

2 tbsp. cumin seeds

4-5 cinnamon sticks

1 tbsp. cloves

1 tbsp. black peppers

1 tbsp. black cardamom (badi illaichi) seeds or 4-5 whole cardamoms

4-5 bay leaves

1 tbsp. small green cardamoms whole

1 tbsp. dry, whole red chillies

2 tbsp. turmeric powder

1 tsp. mace powder (javitri)

1 tsp. nutmeg powder (jaiphal)

Ahhhhhhhh. Now I see. I somehow missed the "or" after the black cardamoms. Now I feel daft ha.

Thanks mamta.

:-) Easily done, do not worry!
