    About garlic podi

    Garlic podi is a dry masala powder made by roasting urad dal, gram dal, garlic, red chillies and curry leaves. All are dried one by one and then made in a powder. It is not very smooth, but slightly thick. The lentils gives a good texture, gives red chili spices and garlic gives strong taste and taste.

    We usually mix it with gingeli oil or ghee and eat it with idli, dosa or rice. It tastes really good and can be made and stored for a long time. You do not have to keep it in the fridge either. Just keep it in a dry place in a tight box. You can make small batch or large batch as your wanted. The only thing that keeps in mind is to fry each item with patience slowly, nothing should be lit or roasted.

    It is almost like garlic sauce powder. It is dry and always ready. So on busy morning or lazy days, just take a spoon and mix with oil and your delicious food is ready. It is very easy to do this on busy days or when guests come suddenly. Just fry, grind and do all the items well. I always like to keep it in my kitchen shelf. Even children love it with dosa or plain rice.

    Pondu podi chutney is a simple and easy to make powder that is a spice for idli, dosa or even rice. This podi can also be added to vegetable curry/gravy. Like Podi, we all can stay at home too much at home, both children can live together with podi.

    Expert tips

    • roast – Keep the flame only low or medium. Fry each component gently so that it turns golden brown. If the heat is too high, it can burn bitter and taste.
    • Chili Always fry red chillies with lentils. In this way it will not burn fast. Crying them alone makes it dark and bitter.
    • Garlic – Garlic should be finely chopped so that it becomes crisp while frying.
    • Coolant – After roasting, spread everything on a plate and let it cool down completely. If you grind while heating, it can be soft sticks or twisted.
    • Pisai – Do not smooth it too. Just grind it a little thick. There should be a little crunch, which is why this makes this podi delicious.
    • Masala level – Add more or less red chili according to the preference of your spices. If you want additional spicy then you can also add a small pinch pepper.

    Mix 1-2 teaspoons of garlic pod with warm rice and make a drop of sesame oil or ghee. To promote immediate taste, do spoon on idli or dosa.
