Thanks Coffee, for choosing Preserve it as a theme for MBP now I can boast of making some very tasty home made masalas and jam at home.
I made -
Sambhar masala from Bharathy’s recipe
Chaat Masala from your recipe Coffee’s
Mango jam from off-course Viji ’s recipe
Bharathy’s Sambhar masala is too good. For the first time the sambhar tasted like sambhar 
Viji’s jam tasted very delicious. I used only mangoes for the jam .
Coffee’s chaat/multipurpose masala is again a simple tasty, easy to make masala. Now I need not buy it from the store .
This is my entry for Coffee’s MBP. Thanks Coffee it was fun making these recipes for the event.
Also many thanks to Bharathy , Coffee, and Viji for sharing such wonderful recipes.

What enthusiasm! all the entries are great! I also prefer home made sambar masala…my mom always makes it at home and it tastes so much better than readymade ones.
Yes I agree Tee, home made smells nice and fresh.

How nice, Archana! I make garam masala at home, from scratch. Don’t use much sambar powder so buy it from the shop where it’s ground fresh.
Thanx Sra, only lately I have started making the masalas , normally they were all bought from the store
