Idly Podi, also known as Milagai Podi or Gunpowder, is a flavorful South Indian dry chutney powder made from roasted lentils, sesame seeds, dried red chilies, and spices. It is traditionally served as a side dish for idli and dosa. This aromatic and spicy blend is usually mixed with sesame oil or ghee to form a paste and used as a dip. It offers a perfect balance of heat, nuttiness, and texture, making it a beloved accompaniment in South Indian cuisine.
