Default Harmless Home Remedies.

AngaYappodi:

This podi is eaten with hot rice & ghee.

This is said to rempove all impurities from our stomach & refreshes our digestive system.

This also prevents the tendency to put on weight after delivering a baby & gives “azakiya kaayam – beautiful figure “ & hence the name.

Pepper - 1 ½ heaped tsp

Dry ginger - 2 ½ “

Dhaniya - ¼ cup

Red chillies - ½ cup

Tur dhal - ¼ cup (optional)

Gram dhal - ¼ cup (optional)

Mustard seeds - 1 heaped tbsp

Sundaikkai - ¼ cup

Dry neem flowers - ¾ cup

Hing - 2 tsp

Curry leaves - few
Salt
In a dry kadai,, roast all other ingredients except sundaikkai, neem flowers & hing.

These three should be roasted, each separately, adding minimum oil.

Mix everything with salt & powder.

This is best eaten with “arisi appalam” & “ilai vadam”.

“Urad aappalam’ is better avoided with this, to prevent flatulence.
