Ellu pudi

Here is a tasty and healthy sesame seeds chutney powder recipe / Till seeds spice powder recipe for rice, idli and dosa in Karnataka style. In North Karnataka, this ellu pudi is one of the most popular side dish served for rice and roti. It is called as chutney pudi in Kannada.  People usually make this chutney powder with Gurellu / Uchellu / Niger seeds that looks similar to sesame seeds but I used our regular Til seeds.

Recently I prepared two types of ellu podi recipe. One is Tamilnadu style and other one is this Karnataka style ellu pudi. To be honest, I loved this Karnataka style ellu podi more than our Tamilnadu style because of the tangy and sweet taste of this podi. Moreover its so simple and easy to make as well. 

It was so good with rice, idli and dosa. We all loved it. Friends, do try this Karnataka style sesame seeds chutney powder. You will love it for sure. Check out the quick video below.
