FLAXSEED KALATHU PODI

Today, with the help of my aunty Chembagarm, I prepared the Kollu Kalathu podi.  Similarly, I tried the same with the flaxseed and it was awesome.  other flax seed recipes:

1)  Flaxseed thogayal  2)  pumpkin flaxseed gun powder  3) flaxseed kajur ladoo  4)  Instant flaxseed dosa

Kalthu podi is a dry powder which can be stored for a month if you keep in a airtight container carefully.  If you are bored of preparing any curries with the rice, do not worry, you can use this and will love it.

This is a Palakkad recipe (my mom from Palakkad).  Normally, various dals are used to make this powder but we can choose any one of the item too.

Since flaxseed has got many health benefits, I thought of trying the same with it.

Let us look at the recipe now:
