Please teach me how to make rasa podi..Your recipes are mouth watering.. Also kindly teach how to make keerai masiyal n keerai kadaintha kulambu..
Bavani,
For Rasa Podi, dry fry 1 tablespoon of thuvar dhal, 1 tablespoon coriander seeds, 2 red chillies, 1 teaspoon black pepper and 1 teaspoon cumin seeds (jeeragam) and powder it coarsely.
I always prepare this podi fresh whenever I make rasam. I do not fry, but just put the above in a mixie and grind coarsely. Before removing I add one garlic flake and just run and remove.

Also let me know if you have any website for non veg items…
Hi Vijayalakshmi,
Most of my recipes are South Indian Vegetarian and using Garam Masala is minimum. Hence I do not prepare it at home. I will any good brand available whenever I need. For Biriyani/Kurma I use whole spieces like clove, cardamom, aniseed, cinnamon stick etc. I am a pure vegetarian, and I do not know how to cook non-vegetarian recipes.
