Everyday Cooking
Made for regular Tamil home cooking.
Paruppu Powder is a simple, comforting mix prepared from roasted toor dal (pigeon peas) ground with cumin, black pepper and asafoetida — the combination used to make paruppu sadam, the mild lentil-rice dish found in Tamil households as a first meal for children and a comfort food for all ages. Mixed with hot rice and a spoon of ghee or gingelly oil, it makes a fast, satisfying meal with no cooking required. The powder has a warm, lightly smoky aroma from the roasted dal. Mrs. Esakkiammal grinds it in small batches at Iyarkai Pantry. The 100g pack is enough for 10–15 servings for a family. No preservatives, artificial flavours or colours are added. Paruppu powder also works as a dry dip for idli, dosa or puri when mixed with sesame oil. Store airtight and consume within 3 months.
