Making of Garlic powder for idli and dosai (Poondu podi ) - Preparation time 15 mins
This podi will be on great demand when mom prepare vendhaya dosai. The dosa will smell awesome and tasty sooo good because of that we will keep on eating. The dosa will be thick and very soft.
When mom prepare vendaya dosa she will make sure to prepare poondu podi also.
She used to make in the hand grinding stone in which she used to make idli flour. You know sometimes in last minute only she will prepare this poondu podi so after preparing & removing the podi she will keep the stone closed with a plate. When she prepares the dosai we will put the hot dosai with sesame oil in the middle part of the stone to remove the podi and also to coat the hot dosa with the spicy poondu podi and will enjoy eating.
At any cost we won't get that good old golden days back in life :-). Those tasty mom made food will be ever lasting. Okay now we will see how to make this very simple poondu podi. This is another healthy way to consume the fresh garlic
Ingredients:-
Garlic pods - 20
Red chili - 8 to 10 (Roast to dark brown with little sesame oil in low flame)
Salt - to taste
Preparation method:-
In a kadai roast the red chili and cool it. Using mixer grind this to fine powder and transfer to a air tight container.
In the mixer add the peeled and crushed garlic pods, the ground red chili powder according to spice level.
The garlic will also be spicy so add the chili powder in little quantity along with required amount of salt. (You can always add chili powder even afterwards if you want more spice and mix).
Using whipper button grind the mixture(garlic, salt, red chili powder).
Garlic naturally contains oil so it will be sticky only. You have to open the mixer jar and mix the ingredients with a dry spoon to get the garlic mashed well.
This will be an aromatic and somewhat paste like podi. Goes very well with idly and dosai. Particularly with vendhaya dosai :-).
