Are you looking for weight loss recipes and diet food..Then add this in your daily menu..Horsegram is such a healthy grain and it helps in losing weight. After i posted my kollu thogayal recipe, i got so many request to post more kollu recipes. So this is my addition to my kollu dishes.

My grandmas makes this podi and keeps handy. During our lunch time, she put some hot rice in a plate, sprinkles some of this podi, drizzle a tsp of gingelly oil over the rice, mix it up and eat. Then she continues with the rest of the gravies. You can even have this instead of having idli podi. So try this and let me know how it turns out..My next recipe attempt is going to be kollu rasam and kollu sundal…

Preparation Time : 10 mins
Cooking Time : 15 mins

Ingredients:

Horse Gram / Kollu / Kanam – 1/4 kg
Dry Red Chilli – 4 to 5
Garlic – 6 big cloves

Salt to taste

Method:

Heat a heavy bottom pan on medium heat. Add in horsegram and roast them for a good 10 mins till it turns darker and is nicely toasted.Remove it to a bowl.

In the same kadai. Add in chilli, cumin and asafoetida. Roast them for a couple of mins. Transfer it to the same bowl.

Now add garlic and salt to it and let them cool.

Now take them in blender and make into a fine powder.

Store it in air tight container.


Notes:

1)If you want to store this for longer time store it in fridge.
2)This powder can be stored in fridge for many months.
3)Dont use wet spoons while handling it.
