| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. Mix together the cumin, cloves, cardamom, black peppercorns, allspice, and fenugreek seeds. Place in a small frying pan over medium heat.
|
2. Stir constantly until they release their fragrance, about 1 to 2 minutes. Do not burn or discolor the spices. Cool completely.
|
3. Combine the toasted spices and all the other ingredients, except the oil and the wine, in a spice grinder or electric coffee grinder and grind fine in batches.
|
4. This may take a few minutes. Keep your face away from the machine as it will release a very spicy aroma that may irritate your eyes or throat.
|
5. Place the spice blend in a bowl and add the oil and wine. Add cayenne pepper to taste. Stir until thick and store in a closed plastic container in the refrigerator.
