start with the basics...you should also have a spice grinder (small electric coffee grinder), so you can toast and grind fresh. just grind a piece of white bread between spices to clean out the inside of the grinder.
- cumin seed
- fennel seed
- coriander seed
- caraway seed
- clove
- dried ginger powder
- nutmeg
- turmeric
that's all I can think of at the moment. but a well-equipped spice rack can be a huuuuge list of stuff.
