Mom's Magic Curry Powder

I love my Mom's Magic Curry powder. She uses it most of the curries and I party with it when I cook. Now that amma is on vacation and I ran out of my favourite spice, I had emailed her for the recipe. After  a lovely lunch at Mainland China and a refreshing evening nap, I decided to make the spice powder for my Ridge gourd curry  and share the recipe with the world.
