Potukadalai paruppu podi (with Garlic)

Paruppu podi made with fried gram dal and garlic, so simple to make and taste so good with steamed rice and gingelly oil. My mom used to make variety of podi, which we mix with steam rice and have. I personally love both paruppu podi, one made with fried gram dal and other with tuvar dal(toor dal).


Ingredients:

Fried gram dal / potukadalai - 1 cup
Red chilli - 8 nos
Garlic Pod - 8 nos
Pepper - 1 teaspoon
Oil - 1 or 2 teaspoon
Cumin seeds - 1/2 teaspoon
Salt - to taste

Preparation Method:

1. Dry roast fried gram dal for just one or two minute in medium flame and keep it aside.
2. Heat oil in a pan, roast red chilli, garlic, cumin seeds and pepper one by one.
3. Allow all the ingredients to cool down and grind together with salt in a mixer to fine powder.
4. Store it in airtight container.

Tips:

1. Excess of cumin seeds might over powder the spice powder flavour.
