Anjali ji, I made this exactly as you have mentioned. The color of my masala is dark brown to black. How come the image in your recipe appears white color? Could I have made a mistake?

Hi Meera
may be you have roasted the spices little bit more hence it turn darker in colour ,but it will not effect the taste, so don’t worry and enjoy the masala.

I have tried many of your recipes and they turn out perfect. I tried ur garam masala rec. and it was perfect, of course i did some modifications. Now i am going to try pav bhaji masala. i am a north indian too (from UP}so i guess my taste matches with urs.

@Anonymous-The Ingredients looks similar but the flavours and taste of Balti masala is different from Punjabi garam masala.Balti cuisine originates from the Northern part of Pakistan and have its own distinct flavours.
