Idly milagai podi is a flavorful spicy powder made of lentils and red chillies which is an accompaniment for idly and dosa.It can be mixed with generous amount of sesame oil or ghee.My son likes to eat idly with milagai podi,so its a must in my pantry.I make it often and store it and lots of variations can be made.Here is the simple version of milagai podi.
Ingredients
