MTR Idli Karam Podi is a traditional South Indian spicy powder crafted from roasted lentils and authentic spices to add bold flavor to idlis, dosas and rice. The mix combines roasted dals and red chilies with sesame and aromatic seasonings to create a nutty, smoky heat that complements steamed idlis and crisp dosas. It is a convenient, ready-to-use condiment that brings the characteristic tangy, spicy and savory notes of homemade gunpowder without extra preparation, making it ideal for quick breakfasts and everyday South Indian meals.

How to use: For a classic chutney, take 1–2 teaspoons of the podi and mix with about 1 teaspoon of sesame oil or melted ghee to form a coarse paste, then dip idlis or spread it on dosas. For a dry sprinkle, dust a little podi over hot idlis or dosa pieces after dipping them lightly in oil. To flavor rice, mix 1–2 teaspoons of podi with a drizzle of oil and stir into hot steamed rice; adjust the quantity to suit your spice preference.
