Ellu Podi

Chettinad Ellu Podi is a traditional spice blend from the Chettinad region of Tamil
Nadu, India. It is made by roasting sesame seeds along with a variety of spices like
cumin, coriander, and dried red chillies, then grinding them into a coarse powder. This aromatic mixture adds a nutty, spicy flavour to dishes and is often used as a seasoning for rice, idli, dosa, or sprinkled over vegetables. Chettinad Ellu Podi is known for its unique taste and is a staple in Chettinad cuisine, adding depth and complexity to dishes.
