Mixed Dhal Idly Podi/Powder


I have already posted idly podi with channa dhal and urad dhal but today's recipe is going to be a very flavorful one with a combination of many dhals and peanuts.This podi is slightly different from the regular idli podi.
My kiddo always likes to have idly with idly podi and sesame oil.To make it more healthy and  protein rich I make it with a combination of dhals and less spicy.Now to the recipe......
