TRS describe it as one of the most popular spices for rice dishes such as pilaus and biryanis, a staple in Indian, African and Middle Eastern cooking, and an essential part of garam masala. This 50g bag is packed in India.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLightly crack one or two pods and add them to hot ghee or oil with bay leaf, cloves and cinnamon before the rice or onions go in.
