Proud to present my MIL's recipe for sambar podi. We can use this powder for sambar, Puli kulambu, Curries and also for non veg dishes.
INGREDIENTS :
Dry chillies       1/2 kg
Dhania             1/2 kg
Jeera               50 gms
Pepper            50 gms
Toor dal          50 gms
Methi seeds     50 gms
Raw rice          50 gms
Rock salt         a handful
METHOD :
Dry all the items in sun for 2 days. Dry fry all the ingredients separetely except red chiilies.

    Thanks for your valuable comment. Rice is a thickening agent.The sambar will be thick and will have good volume.
