Paruppu Podi Recipe / Kandi Podi Recipe with step by step pictures and a short YouTube video. It is a medley of lentils, spices, red chilli roasted in low flame and ground into a fine powder. This podi comes so handy if you don’t have time to make sambar or rasam, just leftover plain rice with a dollop of ghee is enough to fill your tummy. I have used garlic for a nice flavour, you can even skip it. Also, if you want to make in a large batch, just double or triple the ingredients. If I run out of Idli Podi, I use this powder as a side dish with idli, dosa too. If you like the video, please Like it, Share it and don’t forget to subscribe to my channel.

Notes

Tips for Paruppu Podi Recipe

  1. Don't increase the number of cumin seeds or peppercorns, as the Paruppu Podi Recipe tastes different.
  2. Adjust red chilli level as per spice level required for this Kandi Podi recipe.
  3. If preferred you can use the garlic with skin, it also gives a nice texture, but I peeled the skin.
  4. Also, crush garlic flakes (don't use as a whole) and roast it till crispy, else it turns into a paste while grinding.
  5. Slow roast all the ingredients in low flame, avoid burning it, as it would change the whole taste.
  6. Ingredients can be dry roasted also, but I used little oil as it gives colour to the podi.
  7. The colour of the podi depends on the type of red chilli used.
  8. This podi can be ground into a smooth/coarse powder as preferred.
  9. This podi stays good for 2 months when stored in a clean jar.
