What is Chutney Powder?

Dry Chutney Powder, also known as Chutney Pudi, or Podi's, is the quintessential condiment in a South Indian kitchen. These chutneys make a great accompaniment to any meal, adding a unique taste and aroma.

In most traditional meals, there is always a spoon or two of this spicy chutney pudi along with pickle and salad. It tastes great when mixed with oil or curd.

How to use Dry Chutney Powder?

Sprinkle the chutney pudi over idli, bread toast, smear on dosa, chapati, or over steamed rice. You can also use it to thicken your curries and gravies.

Spread chapati or paratha with a little dry chutney pudi with a bit of ghee or butter and roll it to give to your child as a snack or in the lunch box. 

Storage Suggestions

Chutney powder easily lasts for 15-20 days when stored at room temperature in an airtight container. If you are making in large quantities, you can refrigerate up to 2 months in a ziplock, remove small portions, and use them accordingly.

      Hi Maggie...You should dry roast channa dal on medium low heat till dal turn brown...if you roast on high blame it will burn and podi wont taste good.I guess you did not roast the dal so its tasting raw.Let me know if you have more questions.
