Mamta Gupta
Personally, I tend to add individual spices when making pakoras. That way, I can control how I want a particular pakora to taste. However, I often get asked about making pakora mix, suitable for all kinds of pakoras. So here it is! Makes 1 small jar.

2 tbs. dry fenugreek or methi leaves, crushed
1 tsp. ginger/saunth powder (omit if you normally use fresh ginger)
1 tsp. ground black pepper
1 tsp. cardamom/illaichi powder (optional)
1 tsp. cinnamon/dalcheeni powder (optional)
1/2 nutmeg (jaiphal), grated
1 heaped tsp. carom/ajwain seeds
