Hi All
I have just tried to track down a supplier of Jalpur garam masala, the only place i can find is Jalpur millers online and the cost of pp from leicester is ?7.50p, as the goods only cost ?3.50. i think its a rip off!!, any one have any other links to a cheaper supplier/shop?
thanks
Andy Mac

The only thing I can suggest Andy, Is for you to PM Terry (ifindforu) He may be able to help you out.
Or you could just use Rajah Garam Masala, which is the one Abdul recommends, Just a thought

I tried to find Jalpur Garam Masala down Brick Lane (London) yesterday. It was the main reason I went there, to call at two large supermarkets. Neither place had heard of it. I'm not saying it's no good but, if "every BIR in the UK uses Jalpur" how come they'd never heard of it?

i looked for this jalpur brand too recently. none of the larger places had it or had heard of it.
i did manage to find a few boxes in some smaller shops in blackburn,(achari masala and some others, i forget which)  no garam masala though and the ones that were on the shelf were dusty and out of date! ::)

i bought some natco gm to try :-\ 
revolting flavour if you ask me, its going straight in the bin ;)

no not a welsh thing but the BIR T/A buy any garam masala and know what to add to make a similar smell and taste like jalpur i dont know how to make that mix,but jalpur is exactly the same smell and taste so that makes getting a BIR T/A taste easy er

I got my garam masala today,it's very fragant indeed-I can certainly detect cloves in there somewhere.There's no comparison to my rather bland Rajah garam masala.I remember when I had my take-away lesson the Manager was keen to show me(and let me smell) their own home made garam masala.I'm sure that amongst the vast array of Patak's pastes this is one of the things a lot of places actually do make from scratch.

Does anyone know if the ingredients are listed on the pack of the Japlur Garam Masala? I'm tempted to have a go at roasting some whole garam masla spices and grinding them to see what I can come up with.I brought a packet of this ages ago,I wonder how it would compare??
