Goda Masala image

This is a spice blend originating from Maharashtra in India. Goda' means 'sweet' and in this recipe the sweetness comes from the coconut in the mixture. It is not readily available in shops, so I make a fairly small quantity and store it in an airtight container for up to 4 months. This is an adaptation of Monisha Bharadwaj's recipe, and is an ingredient in Puneri Dal (Yellow Lentils Pune-style) which I am posting separately.

Time 20m

Yield 1/2 cup

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 green cardamom pods
1 cinnamon stick (1/2 inch)
5 cloves
2 bay leaves, dried
1 -2 teaspoon sunflower oil
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
2 teaspoons coriander seeds
4 teaspoons desiccated unsweetened coconut (or use fresh coconut, grated finely)

2 tablespoons white poppy seeds

Steps:

  • Split open the cardamom pods and remove the seeds from the husks.
  • Discard the husks.
  • Heat the oil in a small skillet and saute the cinnamon, cloves, cardamom seeds and bay leaves until the cloves swell.
  • Dry roast the remaining ingredients over a low heat until the coconut is slightly darker than a golden brown.
  • Stir and watch carefully as the coconut can suddenly burn!
  • Cool both mixtures, than place all the spices in a clean coffee grinder, and grind until fine.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this goda masala was surprisingly mild. The coconut milk really mellows out the heat, and the overall flavor is very well-balanced. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I added some chopped carrots and green beans, and it turned out really well. The goda masala sauce is very versatile, and I can see myself using it in many other dishes.
