All the Pataks stuff is pretty good; even our Indian friends sometimes use
it.

Most sho-nuff Indian recipes involve grinding the spices (every Indian home
seems to have a dedicated spice grinder), then cooking the spices (sometimes
in oil, sometimes in a dry pan), and other involved techniques.  My wife,
who is quite adept in the kitchen (http://frenchletters.wordpress.com for
details), and not averse to involved culinary techniques, frequently uses
pre-fab Indian stuff.

A city with even a small Indian population will have an Indian grocery
store, and, in my experience, Indians are very willing to help you out if
you ask questions.
