Idli milagai podi

I wanna share this recipe just because i love it a lot. From my childhood days i used to eat this along idli and dosa. Whenever I go to my granny's home she used to do this recipe a big batch and give to me.

Coming to the recipe, this is easy to do and also a life saver. If you have no time to cook any side dish for idli or dosa just mix this with sesame oil and have. It goes well with rice too.

Use clean and dry spoon so it has longer shelf life.

Hope you too love this recipe. Share yours experience too.
