This is a universal Bengali seasoning used in almost all curries and other dishes. You can get all the ingredients in Indian groceries and large spice shops. Pach Phoran means five seeds.
Ingredients
6 tbsp black mustard seeds
5 tbsp nigella (kalonji) seeds
5 tbsp cumin seeds
5 tbsp fennel seeds
5 tbsp fenugreek seeds
Method
Mix all the ingredients and keep in an airtight jar. Use as needed. The mix is usually fried in oil/ghee (until crackling and fragrant) before adding other ingredients.
Tip: if you have a Bangladeshi shop near you, they usually have pre-mixed pach phoran packets.
