DRY COCONUT POWDER RECIPE

    This is a  very simple recipe i learnt from my friend after tasting this in her place one day when we are having lunch together after a tiring day of shopping groceries. She always keeps a lots of podis that can be mixed with rice and one among them is this Dry coconut powder also known as Kobbari Podi. Will soon share recipes of other varieties of podis also.
