This is my Tirunelveli Aachi’s recipe which I got from my mom.Its a great side dish for idli,dosa.It has a nice flavour of black sesame seeds and garlic.I guess this recipe may be new to most of u.Its very easy to prepare compared to
Idli milagai podi.Just 3 ingredients are needed.Usually my Mil makes Ellu podi for rice and its completely a different recipe.Soon i’ll post that one.But this podi goes well only for idli,dosa and not with rice.If u are a sesame seeds lover,u must try this recipe.U’ll love its flavour.Over to the recipe with a picture

Very healthy podi..loved your version.
I make it in the same method but in addition to that i used to add small amount of tamarind.
How long can we store this podi? Shall we roast the garlic before grinding?
It stays good for a week. You can saute garlic but flavor changes.
We can add roasted curry leaves to increase the taste...
Yes it's a good addition. Thanks for your suggestion.
