The UK may be part of the Commonwealth and we have access to some of the most incredible produce at our fingertips as a result of it, BUT … even before Brexit, there are a number of German ingredients I can’t get hold of – not for love nor money.

Thankfully, this spice mix can be made with some commonly available spices.

• 1/2 tsp cardamom, powdered
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg, grated
• 1/2 tsp aniseed
