Podis are best companions for Idli, dosa, or rice on a busy day when there is less time to make an elaborate meal. We love our podis and this Pudhina podi has become our household favorite. While we like to add. a spoonful of this with rice and ghee, the kids love to eat with their dosa or Idlis. They taste great with both of them. The flavor and color that Pudhina/Mint leaves give to this powder are so appetizing to look and taste. Try this tasty mint podi/Pudhina podi soon. You will definitely fall in love with it.

Notes
- Wash and air-drying /fan drying the mint leaves is a key step to making this podi. If there is water in the mint leaves, it will not result in the right podi consistency.
- I have added one clove of garlic only to this podi, just so as to make the flavors of mint dominant. You can add more garlic if you like the garlicky flavor.
- Instead of Garlic, you can replace asafoetida. Roast the asafoetida along with dals.
