Cinnamon, and hot red peppers. Not together, though, obviously.

I know I'm really setting myself up with this answer...but my favorite spice to use is Cumin...

Salt?

Cinnamon....on pancakes, in buns or babka, in biryani, tomato bredie (SA lamb stew)or with apple pie - yum! :food:

I'm making a curry tonight, consisting of chicken, onions, peppers, tomatoes and lots and lots of chilli peppers.

I have a big bag of spices, containing pretty much anything, i want this curry to pretty much blow my head off (not literally, as some folk will no doubt be disappointed to hear). What spices would everyoner recommend? I was thinking of keeping it basic with tumeric, cumin, avis and curry powder?

I hope you boiled your undies in the kitchen sink after that curry. TWICE! or did you bury them in the back yard?

Garam Masala and ground pepper. Not many people think to put pepper into a curry, but it really does add loads of spice.

I love pepper, me. I have it on everything.
