Idli podi or milagai podi (Tamil: இட்லிப் பொடி; Malayalam: ഇഡ്ളി പൊടി;Telugu: కారం పొడి) is a coarse spice powder, originating from the Indian subcontinent, with a mixture of ground dry spices that typically contains dried chilis, black gram, chickpeas, salt and sesame seeds. The spice mix is commonly referred to in informal speech as "gunpowder" or chutney powder.[1] It is generally mixed with gingelly (sesame) oil or melted ghee when it is served alongside idli or dosa.[2]
