0 MOONG SPROUT PODI(POWDER)

This is one my sister's recipe...she usually make podi/chutney podi with lot of different varieties like methi seed sprout...this moong sprout podi is also one of her invention. Have to have a lot patience like her to allow the sprouts to come up and dry roast all ingredients seperately...though the final outcome is very much healthier and new.

Moong dhal sprouts - 2 cups

Channa dhal - 2 cups

Garlic - 10 pods

Red chillies - 8 ( can add more for extra spice)

Black pepper - 1/4 tsp
Jeera - 2 tbsp
Sesame seeds - 1/2 cup
Tamarind - 3 inch piece

pinch of hing
Salt

Pat dry moong srpouts by spreading them in a paper or plate for few hours...
Heat 2 tbsp of oil and fry jeera, black pepper, red chillies, tamarind and hing...powder together
Dry roast sesame seeds in low flame and keep aside...dry roast channa dhal till they are light brown...keep aside
Dry roast sprouts till they are crisp and brown...keep aside..
Try to powder each seperately and transfer to a bowl....take a small amount again in the mixer and add garlic and turn on the mixer for few seconds...so the garlic blends well...transfer to the bowl and add salt...mix well....you can have this podi with idli/dosa or can have with rice and ghee too.
