1
Roasting Spices
In a dry skillet over medium heat, add the cumin seeds, coriander seeds, black peppercorns, and dry red chilies. Roast them for about 5-7 minutes or until they become fragrant and slightly darker in color.
2
Cooling the Mixture
Remove the skillet from heat and allow the roasted spices to cool completely.
3
Grinding
Once cooled, transfer the roasted spices to a spice grinder or a mortar and pestle. Add the turmeric powder and salt. Grind until you achieve a fine powder consistency.
4
Storing
Store the masala jeera powder in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. It should remain fresh for several weeks.
