Hi Sapna ,

your recipe for milagai podi is very new to me...will try it and tell you how it is..Thansks for sharring it with us...

Arjithamma ,

My style of doing Iddli milagai podi :

Ingredients needed :

• Dried Red chillies - 1/4 kg (Preferred kondu milagai)
• Urid dhal - 2 cups
• channa dhal - 2 cups
• Toor dhal - 2 cups
• Black sesame seeds  (Ellu) - 100 gms.
• Hing powder - little
• Salt - as reqd. (i use powdered salt )
• oil - 1 spoon

Method :

• take a big tawa and add Ellu and dry fry it till it pops out well , and set aside seperately
• now add urid + channa + toor  dhal and dry fry well and set aside seperately
• now add one spoon oil and add dried red chillies and fry well
• allow all ingredients to cool well and then grind it into coarse powder
• first gring Ellu , just in pulse or in 1 grind it...not too much , as it segregates oil out so the milagai podi will get sticky... so grind it just less than a min.and keep it in a bowl
• then grind dhall coarsely and add it to the ellu powder
• then grind the dried red chillies and add it to the above two powders
• now add the salt + hing powder ...if you are using rock salt (Kallu uppu) then grind it along with the dhals
• Mix all the above powders well ...and if it is hot allow to cool well and then store it in air tight containers or glass bottles..

Notes :

• The measurement i gave comes upto 500gms bottles..
• This is the method my Mother - in -law does..
• My mom doesn't add ellu , instead she add little jaggery...
• Both the methods will be excellent...

regarding Rasam Powder ... Will ask my mom and let you know.....by tomm.

Hi cherrysmile ,

Hope you are asking for Ellu (rice) Ellu sadam :

Ingredients needed :

Ingredients needed :

• Dried Red chillies - 5 to 6
• Urid dhal - 2 tsp
• channa dhal - 2 tsp
• Toor dhal - 2 tsp
• Black sesame seeds  (Ellu) - 1 cup 
• Hing powder - little
• Salt - as reqd. (i use powdered salt )

Method :

In a tawa dry fry all the ingredients seperately and grind it coarsely ..the same way as i told for iddli milagai podi.

If you are doing ellu sadam , then :

• Cook rice seperately and spread it well and allow it to cool
• Then temper it with mustard seeds + curry leaves + urid dhal + chana dhal + 1/2 dried red chilli + hing + salt
• and add this ellu powder + cooked rice and spread it gently.
