(clockwise) fresh garlic (and some garlic powder cause I was out of fresh), turmeric, chilli powder, cardemom, tandoori spice mix, garam masala, some crushed fenugreek seeds, ginger, tomato paste, paprika powder, with in the center some himalayen salt. No cumin cause I don’t like it much and it’s already in the garam masala. Roughly a big teaspoon of everything except 1/2 tsp garam masala and fenugreek, and some extra tomato paste and paprika. Not pictured is a tsp of ground koriander I added later cause I forgot.

Definitely going to do this again soon but with rice and veggies too.
