Curry Leaves Paruppu Podi With Sesame Seed & Garlic / Karuveppilai Paruppu Podi / Karuveppilai Podi Sadham

Sorry for the too long title, i dunno how to name this recipe, i wanted to mention both rice and the podi separately. So to get clear i named it bit lengthy :) And i have already posted a another version of curry leaves podi for Idly/Dosa. This curry leaves podi is for rice/plain rice alone like Paruppu Podi. This karuveppilai Sadham podi is made using Tuvar Dal, Roasted Gram Dal along with sesame seeds and garlic. This is a very flavorful and tasty podi which is healthy too. Generally we know that curry leaves are rich in iron and its good for hair growth, blood count etc. Recently i read it in an article that it helps in treating type 2 Diabetes and googled for more information and was surprised to see the healthy factors behind this curry leaves. In my childhood days i never eat this fresh curry leaves and always throw them now felt very bad for that. So now-a-days whenever i saw curry leaves in Indian grocery, i buy 2-3 packets and consuming it regularly either in this podi form or as fresh leaves.

All my plans were spoiled, since if they are at home means I can't do any work except I can bake a cake or cookies which they love more n help me in such cases. Yes, they help me n obey all my words n somehow I manage to finish my work with them. But in case of savory bake or regular cooking there will be lots of interruption you can't do anything properly. I know this is more common n every blogger mommy took it a challenge n succeed for their blog baby! But most of the time our Kids will win the game, right?! Today also they won the battle n I dropped the baking idea.
