I brought in dried curry pieces / dried ginger pieces /dried sweet ginger / white peppercorns / coffee beans and lemongrass. The only one prohibited was the lemongrass (I was told all grasses are prohibited). I bought the spices from Candi Cuning markets, or is that now Crackers markets..... They are in plastic self sealing plastic bags or sealed bags.
I spend a lot of time with Customs as I declare everything, as I think all of us caring travellers should do.
