Method
 

  1. Dry roast each and every ingredients given separately till nice aroma comes(popping sound should be heard while roasting).
  2. Try to segregate two to three ingredients for cooling in plates to avoid sweating.
  3. When cool grind it to a fine powder and store.
  4. I have powdered it in flour mill as the quantity was more.
  5. This ground powder should be spread over a news paper sheet to cool and then transferred to a airtight stainless steel containers.

Notes

While grinding make it as fine powder.
I have used dry ginger powder you can use the whole dry ginger.
I have used yellow cholam instead of white or you can use both.
Roasting part should be done nicely for nice quality,taste and the shelf-life also increases.
You can keep fresh for months if stored properly in airtight containers.
You can even add Barley with it.
