Kothamalli podi or kothamalli chutney (dry) is normally made by South Indians. It goes along with dal rice, curd rice. I love to mix this podi with curd and have it along with any kind of dosa specially wheat flour dosa, idli, upma kozhukkattai. Instead of having pickles, this podi is a nice accompaniment with molagootal too.
I always try some thing which is very unique. One day when I ran out of vegetables and nothing was there for making breakfast except some sevai with me, I tried this combination and was loved by everyone at home. So thought of sharing with you all. What you need is some kothamalli podi, sevai and some peanuts. Your lovely breakfast is ready.
Let us look at the recipe now:
