இட்லி மிளகாய்ப் பொடி

I am posting here a recipe of Idli podi using horse gram. It tastes better than the usual idli podi. Adding a few spoons of horse gram in any recipe of every day’s cooking is a healthy way to live!

IDLI PODI-2
Ingredients:

Horse gram- ¼ cup
Split Black gram with skin- ¼ cup
Bengal gram- ½ cup
Raw rice- 1 tsp
Small garlic flakes with skin- 2 tbsp
White sesame seeds- 2 tsp
Asafetida- a small piece
Red chillies- 1 ½ cup
Curry leaves- a handful
Salt to taste
Oil- 1 tsp

Procedure:

In a tsp of oil, fry the asafetida first to golden brown.
After taking it away, fry all the ingredients except the red chillies to golden brown.
At the last stage, add the red chillies in it and fry for a few minutes.
When cooled, grind all the ingredients with salt to a coarse powder.
Then add the asafetida and grind again until it is powdered along with all the ingredients.
This is a divine accompaniment especially for hot idlies!!
