Idli Podi (Powder)

Idli podi, also known as idli milagai podi or chutney powder, is a flavorful and spicy condiment that's often served with idli (steamed rice cakes) and dosa (a type of crispy pancake made from fermented batter) in South Indian cuisine. It's a dry powder made from a combination of roasted lentils, dried red chilies, and various spices. The ingredients are roasted to enhance their flavors and then ground into a coarse or fine powder, depending on personal preference.
