Curry spice mix
From Cookipedia
These are my favourite two spice mixes for curry. They are both used, but mix number 1 is added a minute before mix number 2. I make it in batches and keep in separate jars.

Chef's notes
Mix number 1 should be fried and the other mix should be added with the main ingredient of the curry. This recipe should make enough for 12 curries for 4 people. Use about a teaspoon and a half of spice mix 1 to four teaspoons of the second mix. --JuliaBalbilla 12:16, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
