Bash the nutmeg in a plastic bag with a rolling pin to break it into several smaller pieces

Remove the seeds from the Cardamom pods - again, a gentle bash with a rolling pin will suffice, or use a pestle and mortar.it is optional if needed, But I prefer not to need to remove the pods' skin

Place all the spices in a dry frying pan or skillet and heat over very low heat, stirring constantly.

As soon as the aroma from the spices is released, remove the pan from the heat. (This step is essential to release the aromatic oils from the spices)

Working with only a small quantity at a time, but the spices in an electric blender or grinder

And grind them to a fine powder.

Take it out from the grinder jar and transfer it to the bowl/plate, Garam masala is ready to use in the recipe

It can be stored in a bottle and paste the label with the spice name
