Idli Dosa Milaga Podi (Chutney Podi)

This is one the must in all households in South Indian.When my daughter started having it with idli, I didn't want to give her the store bought one.So I was forced to make an unadulterated podi.So this is how I started making podis at home.I learnt it from so many people with lot of variations.At last I stuck to my own style.
There is a important trick in this podi.My daughter and husband throw away all the curry leaves in whichever dish I add,so I added a lot of curry leaves in this and ground it.They like my idli podi very much not knowing  curry leaves are in it! How is it ?Ha ha ha
