Panchphoran Masala


I got this recipe from Asru Didi, Aarti's mother-in-law. I find it very useful when we need a change in taste from the usual Maharashtrian- style phodni/ tadka. I like it in dry vegetable dishes.

Ingredients:

1 measure each


  • Mohri/ Rai/ mustard seeds

  • Jeera/ cumin seeds

  • Methi/ fenugreek seeds

  • Kalonji/ onion seeds

  • Saunf/ fennel seeds

Method:


Mix the above ingredients, store in an air-tight container and use for tadka, especially in bhindi, karela, potatoes, red pumpkin, etc.
