You’re adding your spices in the wrong order

Adding spices in the right order brings out their best flavours as well as ensures they are properly cooked. Simply follow this pattern if you have more than 1 type of spice in your recipe.

1. Whole spices first - Add whole spices such as cardamom pods, cinnamon stick, cumin seeds in warm oil. Ensure that the oil is not too hot otherwise it will burn the spices
2. Ground spices during the cooking process with a splash of water. Raw ground spices need to be cooked properly. Always add them while you are mid way through cooking. If there is not enough moisture in the pan then add a splash of water to prevent them from burning and also give time for them to cook.
3. Pre-mixed roasted spice blends such as Garam masala should be added at the end of cooking. This brings out the flavour intensity of the spices.

Indian cuisine evolved IN the heat, FOR the heat. India sits largely in the tropics. The food wasn’t built for European winters — it was built for monsoons, summers, and humidity.

Chillies actually cool you down. Capsaicin in chillies triggers sweating, and as the sweat evaporates, your body temperature drops.

This is why hot-climate cuisines worldwide — Mexican, Thai, South Indian — lean towards spicy.

The spice cabinet is full of coolants. In Ayurveda, fennel seeds, coriander, cumin, mint, cardamom, raw mango powder and kokum are classified as cooling. Munching on fennel seeds after meals isn’t just for digestion — it’s literally a summer ritual that also aids digestion.

So next time you think that it is too hot to eat Indian food, maybe it is just what you need for your body and taste 😁!
