Description
Rajah All-In-One Curry Powder with Garlic is a convenient and flavorful spice blend designed to simplify the cooking of authentic Indian and Cape Malay-style curries. This variant is distinguished by the addition of garlic powder, which adds a rich, savory depth to the classic curry flavor profile. It is a balanced mix of roasted spices, including coriander, turmeric, cumin, fenugreek, and chili, pre-blended to eliminate the need for measuring individual spices. The result is a versatile, aromatic powder that delivers a medium heat level and a vibrant golden color to dishes, making it perfect for both novice and experienced cooks.
Usage Suggestions:
For a Classic Curry Base (Gravy):
Sauté 1 large chopped onion in oil until golden brown.
Add 2 tablespoons of Rajah All-In-One Curry Powder with Garlic and stir for 30 seconds to “bloom” the spices and release their aromas.
Add your choice of meat (chicken, beef, lamb) or vegetables (potatoes, cauliflower, chickpeas) and brown lightly.
Add tomatoes, yogurt, or coconut milk, along with a little water or stock.
Simmer until the meat or vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened.
As a Marinade:
Mix the curry powder with yogurt, lemon juice, and a little oil to create a paste.
Coat chicken, fish, or paneer and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for deeper flavor) before grilling, baking, or frying.
Quick Flavor Boost:
Sprinkle a teaspoon into soups, stews, lentil dishes (dhal), or even scrambled eggs for an instant curry flavor.
Recommended Ratio: Start with 1 tablespoon of curry powder per 500g (1 lb) of meat or vegetables and adjust to taste.
