Submitted by graffeetee

"This was inspired by a dish we saw listed on the menu at Tabla, an "haute Indian" restaurant in Manhattan. The aroma is very intriguing and the flavor is lovely. Use on chicken, fish, whatever suits your fancy."

Pretty combination of spices! That's about all I can say so far because I have neither ground up nor used the spices, but when I do, I'll come back and rate it. I'm looking forward to it. :) Thank you for posting!
