Sorry, this didn't end up as garam masala for me - some other spice maybe, but not GM. I see now other recipes in true GM have more cumin and coriander, rather than cloves and cinnamon which seem to be the basis of this recipe

I used this for making 5 Minute Butter Chicken. Since I only needed 1 teaspoon total, I reduced the recipe as such: 1/4 t cardamon, cloves and pepper, 1/8 t cinnamon, tiny pinch of cumin and coriander and a very tiny pinch of nutmeg. It worked beautifully, thanks for posting Sue! Please see my rating system as I rate tougher than most.

Does exactly what it says! Just a note on the cloves, my ground cloves were not store bought, but left over from some I ground a few days before. They're a lot stronger than the bottled type and I didn't need 1/4 cup. So keep in mind if you are using fresher spices, the amounts may need to be adjusted.

All we could taste was cloves. I could have saved myself the time and just added cloves to my curry!
