Nalgari Pudi / Sambar Powder

I had never posted this. Long time due and moreover this is a request from one of my viewers. Apologize for the delay in posting this. Nalgari/Nalgum Pudi AKA Sambar powder is a typical Iyengar Word.





Ingredients

  • Kadal Parappu / Kadle Bele / Chana Dal - 50 grms
  • Dhania / Coriander Seeds - 25 grms
  • Bhaydgi Malka / Bhaydgi Mensinakai / Red Chillies - 8 to 10
  • Chekke / Cinnamon - 2 to 3 pieces ( small)
  • Lavanga / Cloves - 4
Method
  • Heat pan / kadai roast all the ingredients except chillies till parappu becomes golden yellow.
  • Roast red chillies in a low flame.
  • Add roasted ingredients to the mixer and make a fine powder, cool it and store it airtight box for months.
