Idli milagai podi/ idli podi, fondly 'மொளாப்பொடி' is an inevitable accompaniment for idlis and dosas in every 'tambrahm' household. I used to gulp unlimited idlis & dosas and I don't wait for chutney or sambar (ரொம்ப சமத்து, you see...😜). Every household has their own version of milagai podi recipe, and this is my mom's recipe that I'm sharing here...
Ingredients:
Urad dal - 1/2 cup
Chana dal - 1/2 cup
Red chillies - 1 cup
Asafoetida - 2 small pieces (or 1/4 tsp powdered hing)
Salt - as required
Oil - 1 1/2 tsp
Sesame seeds - 2 tsp (optional)
Method:
Dry roast sesame seeds in a kadai. Keep aside. This is optional; if you don't like, you can skip this.
Add 1/2 tsp oil, roast red chillies. Keep aside. Similarly roast urad dal, hing and chana dal separately until they turn golden brown. Add little oil when you start roasting urad dal and chana dal.
Allow them to cool, add salt and grind to a coarse powder in the mixie. Spicy milagai podi is ready!!! Store in an airtight container.
