Turmeric or Haldi powder is one of the basic spices used in curries. It mostly adds a vibrant yellow colour to the sauce or rice, but an earthy flavour is also discernible.

Directions

In Curries: Most curry powder mixes contain turmeric powder. Mix this turmeric with chillies, cinnamon, cumin and coriander for an authentic curry mix.
To colour rice: Add a heaped teaspoonful of turmeric powder to rice to give it a bright yellow colour.
To colour Mediterranean dishes such as paella: Add a half-teaspoonful of turmeric to paella to give the dish a bright colour without flavouring it too strongly.
As a thickener: Turmeric can be used to thicken sauces and curries. Simply add as required.
