While
cooking, powders viz., Sambar Powder, Rasam Powder, Poriyal Podi/Palya
Powder/Curry Powder will help you to make the things easily. Powders is not
only restricted to these you can make anything which you feel it would be a
must for your cooking. Other Powders are Masala Powder, cardamom powder,
fenugreek powder, dry ginger powder. You name the ingredient a powder can be
made out of it.
Today,
I have selected urad dhal to make curry powder or poriyal podi.
Ingredients:
- Urad dhal – 50 gms
- Ground nut seeds – 100 gms
- Fried Gram – 50 gms
- Red Chillies – 50 gms
 |
| Fried Gram Dhal |
Method:
- Roast urad dhal till reddish brown or a kind of aroma comes out
- Roast red chillies but watch out it might get burnt out if it is roasted more, it should be roasted either with one teaspoon of oil or without any oil
- Roast ground nut seeds
- Remember, roast everything separately
- Add roasted ingredients with fried gram dhal and grind them to make a fine coarse powder
