I like to make my own masala powders instead of buying ready made as homemade ones are always fresh, fragrant full and nothing can beat that. Coming to this dabeli masala I made for my Dabeli obviously right? Well you can use ready made ones but then it’s so easy to make at home and hardly takes 5 minutes then why not? Most of the ingredients are always available in your pantry so give it a try, this masala you can use for pav bhaji or as normal garam masala too not just for dabeli. I made this in small quantity and these ingredients makes around 2 tbsp of masala, if you want you can double or triple the ingredients, make this in large batch and store. But then it’s so easy to prepare then why to store just make fresh every time you need.
*Different color of masala you see it's due to lighting, so ignore that please.
