Ingredients
- 2 tbsp smoked paprika
- 2 tbsp ground cumin
- 2 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried garlic
- 1 tsp dried granulated onion
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp ground pepper
- 1 tsp chilli powder, for taste
- 1 tsp crushed chilli flakes, for taste
Method
Add all the spices into a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Use a spoon or whisk to mix thoroughly, ensuring the spices are evenly distributed and no clumps remain.
Taste a small pinch of the blend and adjust to your preference, adding extra chilli for heat or salt for balance.
Transfer the seasoning into an airtight container or jar. Label with the date for easy reference.
Store in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months. Shake the jar lightly before each use to redistribute the spices.
Tips
For an extra smoky flavour, lightly toast the cumin seeds before grinding them into powder. This step is optional but adds depth.
