Kollu Idli Podi Recipe | Kollu Podi | Horsegram Powder recipe with step by step pictures and instructions. Kollu Idli Podi is spicy condiment made with horsegram. Horsegram has lot of health benefits and helps in weight loss. So I try to include it in many dishes like chutney, adai, porridge and rasam. Kollu podi is multi purpose powder which can be used as side dish to idli, dosa or can be mixed with rice.
I made slight changes to my usual idli podi recipe and came up with this recipe. You won't find any difference in taste and no body can find you have included horsegram. Mix it with ghee or gingely oil and enjoy. You can adjust the proportion of chana dal and can add urad dal or sesame seeds too. This is my second entry to this week blogging marathon themed under condiments.
