    Idli milagai podi is one of the staple in our household even though I make chutney sometimes kids and hubby search for idli podi so I always make a batch ready once it gets over.

    I have tried few store bought idli podis during my initial stages of cooking when I was not used to making idli podi at home.I have tried sakthi masala idli podi, mtr, aachi, annapoorna etc but mittu was reluctant to eat it as they are either too spicy or too strong in flavour which did’t suit her taste buds so that was the main reason I never buy store bought these days.

    I have posted many versions of idli podi as I love trying different varieties and this chettinad style is an addition to my recipe book.I saw this recipe in a cookbook so jotted down and kept long back and tried it only now.

    Variations

    • You can adjust the spice level according to taste.If you want a more bright red color then use more of kashmiri chillies and less of normal chillies.
    • Other ingredients I wouldn’t suggest for any variations as it might change the flavour of the chettinad style.
