Notes
Can use 1/2 teaspoon of gingelly oil to fry each of them too. It gives better aroma. Again its optional.
In our place we do not get cleaned & packed stuff. So we wash & dry them in sun for a day. Then dry roast & grind them.
Can use store bought powders to make meat curry powder as well. Mix them well & Dry roast for few mins. It also works. But make it in small amount and use.
Another Powder: Fish Curry Powder
