Make button idlis using button idli plates and set them aside.
2
In a pan, dry roast urad dal, dry red chillies, black pepper, and chilli powder together.
3
Roast until the urad dal turns light brown. Turn off the flame and allow the mixture to cool.
4
Grind the roasted mixture into a coarse powder. This is your idli podi (spice mix).
5
In another pan, heat oil and add curry leaves. Then add the ground powder and mix to form a thick paste.
6
Add the button idlis to the pan and toss well, making sure each idli is coated evenly with the spiced paste.
7
Turn off the flame.
8
Your flavourful Podi Idli is ready! Serve hot as a snack or breakfast item — great with coconut chutney or a cup of filter coffee.
