Combine the spices: In a small mixing bowl, add the cumin, turmeric, coriander, garlic powder, paprika, cloves, and cayenne pepper. Mix with a spoon until well combined.
Store: Transfer the seasoning to a mason jar. Cover tightly and keep at room temperature.
Notes
Adjust according to your tastes: If you prefer more heat increase the cayenne pepper. If you prefer less, leave it out or just reduce the amount.
A mixed spice blend like this will last for up to six months.
