Idly podi or Idly Milaga podi is my all time favorite. I always love to taste a spoon of plain powder whenever podi box comes infront of my eyes. This being my husband's favorite sidedish for idly, most of the time this will be my savior during my lazy days. When i studied my 7th in Erode, i do remember, there was a store called "
Kannan Departmental Store" where we'll get all Podi varieties. No one can beat that store podi's taste. Once i relocated from that place i couldn't find the perfect idly podi which matches that store taste. After long time, i thought why shouldn't i try making idly podi at home. So here comes my podi for your views.
