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, seeds might turn bitter while roasting. remove the cap just before grinding.
Tamarind – tips to note
always deseed and remove the fiber. Make sure the tamarind pieces are in smaller sizes. A big piece won’t cook through. Roast in low flame. Perfectly roasted tamarind helps for a longer shelf life.

WILL THE PODI TASTE SPICY?
I used Karnataka red chilli.. Adjust the red chillies according to your spice. My version of milagu kulambu podi is not spicy. It is a kids-friendly spice.
PULSE and grind THE PODI
I would recommend pulsing the podi a few times for the perfect grainy texture. Mix well after each pulse. after the podi turns to a coarse texture grind it to your desired texture.
Why curry leaves powder
Here I buy curry leaves once a week so I buy 2/3 packets sometimes there might be more left so I dry them in the microwave and powder them. I used that not the karuveppilai podi. Instant of curry leaves powder you can saute curry leaves with other ingredients.
