    I came across this spice mix few weeks back and i really want to give this a try. I thought of using this in few of my dishes and was very eager to check how this would turn out. I made myself a bottle of it and used in a couple of recipes, my goodness the results were amazing. They gave a very unique aroma and flavour to those dishes. I never imagined that this humble spice mix will give such a amazing flavour to those recipes.

    There is nothing much to do that shake these spices together in a airtight container and store them smuggly inside the cupboard. You wait for the couple of recipe post, they are amazing one.
