Garam Masala powder and Curry powder have similar ingredients. Here are their Ingredients:

Garam Masala: Red Chili, Clove, Cinnamon, Cumin, Coriander, and Bay Leaf.
Curry Powder: Turmeric, Chili, Coriander, Cumin, Cinnamon, clove, Bay Leaf, Allspice, and Salt.

Garam Masala I used is red. Curry powder is yellow. Garam Masala and Curry powder should be used not more than one Table Spoon.

I salted the chick hind quarters a few days in the freezer before I used them. This is the reason I did not use salt during the cooking process.

I was going to use Creme Fraiche, but mine was spoiled. Maybe next time.
