Spice up your food life

Spices, hot, medium or mild. Every Indian dish has some sort of spice. Spices bring out the flavour and texture that gives you the distinctive taste in your Indian meal.

The basis of any dish is the spice. Some may say it’s the onions or tomato base, but let me tell you that although this is the base, it taste of nothing until you add the right spices and in the right way.

You can of cause just add spices whilst cooking a curry. However, have you tried lightly roasting your spices in a pan?

Just by themselves, no oil nothing! Just heat a pan then turn it off once it is hot. Add the mixed spices into the pan. Stir them gently and you will release the flavours and aromas trapped in them.  Make sure you don't burn the spices, once you can smell the spicy aroma take it out of the pan and leave to cool.

Once cool add them into your dish as usual. You will definitely taste the difference.
