Curry Leaves Idli Podi

Idli podi is always handy to have. During the early morning rush, instead of making chutney, it is easier to eat idli or dosa with idli podi. Every home in Tamil Nadu will have a variety of idli podi. Similarly I also have my own version of idli podi. I have already posted a few of my favorites.
Curry leaves are full of iron and I hate to waste the curry leaves. Every time I get so many curry leaves for free and I try to use it up in some way without wasting them. This time I made this curry leaves idli podi and it came out tasty!

Flax Seed Idli Podi

Idli Podi Recipe, Podi | Masalas, Side Dish for Idli and Dosa No comments

Flax seeds are known as the wonder food, it has a number of health benefits and including it in our daily meal is very good. It is said to reduce heart disease, diabetes, stroke and cancer. It is rich in fiber, omega 3 fatty acids and lignans. It also helps in digestion and keeps skin and hair healthy.

The recommended dose of flax seed is 1 tbsp per day. You can have the seed as it is or powder and take it. Adding it to a podi like this is a great way to include flax seeds in our daily diet.

This podi is similar to the usual idli podi I normally make at home with some slight changes.

Kollu Podi | Horse gram Powder

Idli Podi Recipe, Podi | Masalas, Side Dish for Idli and Dosa 5 comments

Horse gram or Kollu is a super food which has lots of health benefits. I came to know about the value of kollu when we took our daughter to a doctor for a problem that she had and he told us to include kollu in her diet atleast 2 days a week and hence I started my research on horse gram and came to of all it's health benefits.

Kollu is extremly rich in iron, protein and calcium. It also aids in digestion, weight loss, reduces cholesterol, is a diuretic, rich in anti oxidants and so many more benefits.

I have been looking for ways to include this in our weekly diet and make it tasty as well so this is the first recipe I tried. This kollu podi is an adaptation of my idli podi recipe and it came out very well. I also added lots of curry leaves to make it more rich in iron.

This podi can be had with idli/dosa or even rice.

Idli Podi Recipe

Idli podi is a must in today's busy life, every home has a bottle of idli podi for those days of emergencies. And each family has their own way of making their podi as well. My husband's favorite side dish for idli or dosa is the idli podi and every time I make idli podi, I go hunting all over the internet searching for a different combination and have settled on this recipe which is a mix of many but tastes awesome and healthy too! This podi has my husband's approval as well! He likes it extremely spicy!! So I normally add more than the 15 red chillies that I have mentioned here.
