Jeerem Meerem Powder

I was brought up by pai and mai who loved cooking. Mum cooks awesomely well. My dad learnt to cook fairly late ... I think he was 65 then. Cooking, it might seem is in the genes but then one has to get down to it to make the genes work. 

I have some staples in my kitchen. Jeerem Meerem powder is one of them. It is a versatile mixture and can be used  for just about anything: fish, meats, even vegetables. It is one of my must have magic powders.

Collect It:

1 1/2 tbsp pepper powder
2 tbsp cumin powder
1 tbsp turmeric powder
1/4 tsp cinnamon powder
1/4 tsp clove powder
1/2 tsp red chillie powder (not Kashmiri chillies)

Make it:

Mix all the powders together
Pass it through the sieve thrice
Store in glass containers
