Why Karuppu ulundhu podi?

TIPS TO ROAST RED CHILLI

I would recommend roasting the red chilli along with other ingredients. Always roast the whole red chilli. If you remove the chilli cap, the seeds might turn bitter while roasting. Remove the cap just before grinding. 

Can I use white urad dal?

Yes, you can use any variety of urad dal according to your taste. Use the same quantity.

Cool the podi completely, then store it in an airtight container.  You can store the premix at room temperature or in the fridge. Podi stays good for months. Always use a dry and clean spoon for a longer shelf life

WILL THE black gram chutney PODI TASTE SPICY?

 I made the podi kids spice. Adjust the red chillies according to your spice. My version of chutney podi is not spicy.

always roast in a low flame

Initially, heat the pan on medium flame. Always roast on a low flame and avoid medium or high flames. Since we roast all the ingredients together, it is important to spread them well and roast on a low flame.
