Karnataka, by itself is a gourmet's delight with its vast variety of eateries and a typical platter would include - Rice, Kosambari, Pickles, Palyas, Baaths, Rasam, Sambhar and buttermilk served beautifully on a plaintain leaf. Likewise, the chutney pudis, rasam and sambhar pudis are also a part and parcel of a typical kannadiga cuisine.
The Sarina pudi or Menasina pudi is typically used for gojjus, palyas and for saaru. This pudi is exclusively for Ashaji's RCI:Karnataka Event.
Ingredients:
Coriander seeds - 250 gms.
Red chillies - 100 gms
Cumin seeds - 50 gms
Fenugreek seeds - 25 gms
Mustard seeds - 25 gms
Pepper corns - 25 gms
Hing - 1/2 tbsp
Oil - for roasting
Preparation:
1. With little oil roast the coriander seeds and red chillies.
2. Then dry roast the remaining ingredients except hing. Make sure that they are not burnt.
3. Finally, add hing. Now, mix all these and Grind them to fine powder.
Note that the ratio of the spices may be varied according to one's taste.
Tip: To retain the freshness of pudis for a long time, store them in an air-tight container in freezer...:)
