The main difference between garam masala and curry powder is one is stronger in spice taste than the other.

The garam masala spice is a stronger flavor of spice than the curry powder is and also garam masala spice contains ingredients such as cloves, cinnamon and cardamom.

The curry contains less spicy ingredients such as cumin, turmeric, coriander and fenugreek.

So you want to make sure to use the proper spice in the recipe that you're making the food from otherwise the food won't turn out as good.

When cooking with curry powder you really should add the curry powder during the cooking process.

The reason you want to add the curry powder to the food while cooking is so that the curry powder can get cooked in with the food.

That way the dish with curry powder will turn out much better and have a better flavor to it.

If you add the curry powder after cooking then the food would not be as good and it would give the food a raw spice taste to it which is unpleasant.

Always add the curry powder to the food while you're cooking the food so that it gets mixed in and cooked in with the food and you get the best dish of food out of it.
