DOSA MILAGAI PODI (GUN POWDER)

Idli/Dosa milagai podi is our favourite even though we make sambhar and chutney for the idli/dosa.  My mother in law used to add sesame seeds and curry leaves in it.  In my house, we used to make it only with urid dal, red chilli and little bit or rice roasted and added to it while grinding.

My mother in law's version of idli podi was really tasty and I started following her method.  One of my aunty used to put little tamarind and jaggery also while making this podi but my children did not like that taste.  We can also add chana dal in it.

I prefer to have the same along with gingelly oil than the normal oil.  I used to put this podi while making the stirfry vegetables sometime.
This is a main item in the kitchen store of all South Indians.  It is a combination of fried  red chilli, urid dal,sesame seeds and curry leaves.

  For Idli, dosa, adai, I even use the same for making some vegetables and we all love the same.  Different way of making the same by different people, but my way i am presenting here.
