RECIPE NOTES :
I've been experimenting with Karam Podi variations. Here's the latest one I had made. However, I'll update the recipe if I get even delicious podi! But this is amazing as well! 1 1/2 tbsp Coriander, 2 tbsp Chana Dal, 1 1/2 tbsp urad dal, 10 Dry Red chili, 1 Tsp Ghee, 5 Garlic Cloves, 3-4 walnut-sized Tamarind Balls, 1/2 tbsp Cumin Seeds, 10 Curry Leaves' 1/4 Tsp Hing, 1/2 tsp Methi' 1/2 Tsp Mustard. In a pan, add the ghee and add all the other ingredients and slow roast it until its well roasted. Let it cool completely then grind to a coarse powder. Use!
