I made my own spice mix as I found loads of versions on the internet, and they vary greatly from region to region. I HATE coriander leaf, as to me it tastes like dishsoap, so I went towards the Maroccan style which uses dried parsley instead. I combined all kinds of spices I like from different recipes I found on the great wide web.
You need:
2 tablespoons of ground cumin
1 tablespoon of ground coriander (seeds are fine no soap taste 😉 )
1/2 teaspoon of chilli or cayenne pepper, or more if you like things hot
2 tablespoons of mild paprika
3/4 teaspoon of ginger powder (again the fresh stuff..urgh…ground up dried stuff…fine)
1 teaspoon of turmiric
1 tablespoon or dried parsley, could be fresh if yo use it immediately
1/4 teaspoon ground up cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground up bayleaf
1/2 lemon, peel zested
1/2 teaspoon of garlicpowder
pinch of saffran
1 tablespoon of salt
mix everything together and keep in an airtight container.
Will serve 2 kilos or chicken drumsticks
