My uncle gifted me this for Christmas and I was thrilled to use it! I finally did tonight to make a Chana masala. It turned out GREAT so flavorful and very quick to make. Fried onion cumin seeds, then added ground ginger garlic and a sliced hot pepper, added 1-2 tablespoons of the spice mix (and added some of my own spices), then a large can of crushed tomatoes two cans of chick peas and veggies that you want, and finish with fresh cilantro at the end. Served with home made Greek yogurt raita. The best part of this spice mix Is that it makes a quick meal delicious! Will be ordering this once my current can is out.
