Idli Milagai Podi is one of the popular accompaniment for Idli & Dosa made with red chilies and dals. Just making a slight inclusion or variation, we can make Dry Coconut Idli Milagai Podi which would be much more tastier compared to plain Idli Milagai Podi. The main ingredient that is additional to the conventional idli Milagai powder is Kopparai Thengai (Dry Coconut). The wonderful aroma and taste of the dry coconut makes this podi so yummy. Kopparai Thengai Idli Milagai Podi (Dry Coconut Idli Milagai Podi) is a best accompaniment for Idli, dosa or even for Upma. This podi has a good shelf life like our conventional Idli Podi. Store this podi in an air-tight container and use only dry spoon to have a long shelf life.
