Simple Curry Powder

The flavor profile

Coriander and cumin anchor the blend, while turmeric is part of its distinctive spice base. Ginger, cinnamon and cardamom add aromatic notes. Cayenne provides heat. This is the app's own curry-powder combination, not a claim that every curry uses the same spices.

What to use it on

Try the listed curry, lentil and rice pairings. The recipe's cooking tip is to toast the seasoning briefly in oil before adding liquid. A small batch is useful when trying the profile for one meal; a larger volume lets you keep the same measured balance for another dish.

Is curry powder the same as five-spice?

No. This curry blend includes coriander, cumin and turmeric. The Asian Five-Spice blend in the collection starts with star anise, cinnamon and fennel and is listed for stir-fry, duck and pork belly.

Make it with Spice Blends Made Easy

Choose a dry batch of 1 tbsp, ¼ cup, ½ cup or 1 cup and get the ingredient amounts in spoon-and-cup measurements. Mild, Medium, Hot and Fiery settings adjust chili powder, cayenne or red pepper flakes where the recipe includes them. Blends without those ingredients do not gain extra chili heat.
