SIMPLE, SWEET AND MILD CURRY BLEND

Simple, Sweet and Mild Curry Blend image

This curry blend is made from everyday ingredients found in most people's kitchens. I usually like alot of "heat" in my curry powder, but this is a great substitute for Indian flavor, without too much "fire" from red chilis or cayenne. Can be used in any recipe that calls for curry powder.
