    Pappula Podi or Putnala Pappu Podi – An easy, delicious, healthy and versatile Andhra style roasted gram dal podi for idli, dosa or rice.A cup of freshly ground pappula podi garnished with garlic

    Pappula Podi or Putnala Podi is a super simple Andhra podi recipe made with roasted bengal gram or dalia, dry coconut and garlic. This can be served with idli, dosa or steamed rice. You can also use this podi to season the curries.

    Curry Recipes using Pappula Podi:

    • Bendakaya Pappula Vepudu
    • Beetroot Pappula Koora
    • Carrot Dalia Curry

    I have prepared this podi with garlic. If you don’t like garlic, you may skip it.  You can substitute the chilli powder with dry red chillies. This can be made in bulk and store in an airtight container for more than a month.
