Well, the wait is finally over. Today I’m so excited to share the spice blend I’ve been using for years. It’s my go-to mix—simple, bold, aromatic—and honestly, one of those little things that takes your cooking from “okay” to unforgettable.

In my opinion, if you consider yourself a home cook or just someone who loves good food, you absolutely must have a jar of garam masala in your spice cabinet. It changes the game.

Let’s dive in 👇

NEW: Homemade Garam Masala

This easy DIY garam masala is warm, toasty, and deeply fragrant—made with whole spices that you toast and grind fresh. It's the heart of so many Indian and Middle Eastern dishes and adds depth and complexity in just a pinch. Once you try it, you’ll never go back to store-bought.

Updated: Lentil Curry (Dahl)

Creamy, cozy, and packed with flavor—this lentil curry is one of the most popular recipes on my YouTube channel (with over 2.3 million views).

It’s also a perfect example of what garam masala can do. The moment that warm spice blend hits the pan with your aromatics... wow. This dish goes from simple pantry meal to something special. If you’ve never made dahl before, this is the place to start.

What Else Can You Make with Garam Masala?

Besides this comforting dahl, there are so many delicious ways to use garam masala—roasted veggies, stews, marinades, meatballs, even scrambled eggs (trust me!).

In the blog post, I included a full list of easy and flavorful recipes where you can use this blend. You’ll be surprised how versatile it is.
