About Parupu podi
Paruppu Podi is a flavorful South Indian condiment traditionally used to enhance rice dishes. Made from roasted lentils like toor dal or moong dal, dried red chilies, curry leaves, garlic, and spices such as cumin and black pepper, it is ground into a fine powder with a nutty, aromatic profile. Common in Tamil Nadu cuisine, it’s often mixed with hot rice and ghee for a quick, nourishing meal. Rich in plant-based proteins from the lentils and containing essential nutrients like iron and fiber, Paruppu Podi supports digestion and provides energy. However, its sodium content can be high depending on added salt, so moderation is key for those monitoring sodium intake. With no preservatives and typically prepared at home, it offers a wholesome and tasty addition to meals, embodying both traditional flavor and nutritional benefits.
