Both my mom and my mom-in-law makes this,my mom makes this for vendhaya dosai which I feel is a perfect combo,still it tastes great with idly and dosai ! My mom in law makes this as chutney,adding water and making its consistency different. So its our choice to make it as chutney or a dry podi. I have given the podi,we grind without adding water. Its quite flavorful one,I make it rarely and only in weekends as my hubby don’t prefer to smell like garlic in office .

Garlic – one whole bulb
coconut – 3 tbsp
Salt – As needed
Oil – 1/2 tsp
Method:
- Roast redchillies till deep red and cool down,peel the garlic pods. Give a roast the coconut if it is too tender(milky) I dint do as mine was old coconut.
- Grind first salt,coconut and red chillies to coarse powder.
- Then add the garlic and use Juice/inch/pulse option in your mixer to just crush the garlic and blend well with the chilli.
Serve with Idly or dosa with generous sesame oil.
Can keep in air tight container and store it for 2-3 days in refrigerator!

USED TO PREPARE ONLY RASAM USING GARLIC, FOR THE 1ST TIME TRIED YOUR GARLIC PODI RECIPE. IT WAS A LITTLE SPICY BUT TURNED OUT AWESOME. HAD IT WITH DOSAS AND IT WAS FLAVOURFUL; BETTER STILL, TASTED VERY GOOD WHEN MIXED WITH RICE AND A LITTLE GINGELLY OIL.
