Fajita Spice Mix

Everybody loves a fajita, but the ready-made spice mixes you find in the shops can not only be expensive, but not have quite the flavour balance you want (too smoky, too hot, too salty etc.) plus have a few nasty additives in there. So make your own! It's so simple to do, cheaper and you are in control of the flavours.

This makes enough for one batch of fajitas for the family, but if you have them regularly, up the ratio and keep them in an airtight container (or keep hold of an empty spice container). Simple add the ingredients to a small bowl and mix.

Ingredients for one batch
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Half teaspoon ground chilli (or chilli flakes)
Half teaspoon paprika
Half teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Half teaspoon each of salt and pepper
