How to Make Yemen Rub
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 teaspoon cumin seeds and sauté, stirring frequently, until they darken slightly (about 1-2 minutes).
- Add 2 teaspoons ground coriander, 1 teaspoon ground cardamom, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro to the skillet. Sauté for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- Transfer the sautéed spice mixture to a spice grinder, food processor, or mortar and pestle.
- Grind the spices until they form a fine powder.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder. Mix well.
- Store the Yemen Rub in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one month.
