Interesting to know people have their own version of dry masala for these elaborate dishes. If I have to use some dry one it would be from a National packet masala for that thing.

Following is the masala for 1/2 kgs meat. We normally increase the quantity by a multiplier when we are mixing to store.

Salt (1 tsp)
Chilli Powder (1 tsp)
Turmeric Powder (1/2 tsp)
All spice powder - Garam Masala (1 tsp)
Coriander powder (1 tsp)
Fennel powder (2 tsp)

It is. BTW, we do add 1 table spoon of Nihari Masala (shan or National or any other) whenever we cook nihari to bring that extra “baazari” maza
