The spice mix from above

Indian hotel curry gravy  don't worry if it seem to thick.  the juices from the chicken will thin it out

3 boneless,  skinless chicken thighs cut into   each

Coconut milk

Pre-heat a small skillet over medium-low heat.

step 1

Measure out all the large spices (coriander seed, cinnamon bark, peppercorns, star anise arms, clove and green cardamon. Put those in one small bowl. These are the "big" spices. Measure out the cumin seed, poppy seed and ajwain into another bowl. These are the "little spices". Very scientific. I know.

step 2

Add the "big" spices. Toast, shaking the pan, until they start to get fragrant. This should take a minute or two.

step 3

Add the "little" spices and chilies and toast, shaking constantly, for another minute. Flip the chilies about half way through.

step 4

Let cool and grind to a fine powder. I like a coffee grinder for this. One of those ones with the blade.

step 5
