Kodava Kartha Masala, also known as Coorg Pork Masala or Dark Masala, is a signature spice blend from Kodagu (Coorg), essential for dishes like Pandi Curry (pork curry), characterized by its deep, earthy, smoky flavor from darkly roasted spices like coriander, cloves, cinnamon, and peppercorns, forming a robust base that pairs perfectly with the tangy kachampuli.
