Question:

The recipe for Ras El Hanout was paprika, cinnamon, coriander, cumin and cayenne pepper. If you didn't have cumin, what would you replace it with?
— Katherine Collard
Answer:
So when I don't have cumin, I will grind in my spice grinder, some coriander, but you could also use caraway seeds. So since you already have the coriander in it, you could do one of two things. You could just, uh, double that recipe, double the amount of the recipe, or you could try the caraway seeds, which I think would also lend a very, very nice flavor to the dish.
