sk,
There seem to be couple different ways to make it. I haven't made brinjal pickle myself before.
Did the pickle have any ginger garlic taste ?
Or
you could taste the mustard, red chillies ?

R,
I was not able to recollect what we call the podi with dosa. I just recollected it is called "karappodi".
The recipe for this is different. Shall post it too.

Hi Minni;
I thought that Andhra recips always have garlic. I used to travel a lot to Andhra towns as part of my work while I was in India and I never used to like the taste of too much garlic in food. Thanks for your explanation on that.
Your recipes are really very interesting!! I am going to try them all.
Thanks
Seetha
Hi Minni,
Once I had tasted a dhal made with spinach in one of my telugu friend's place, it was very tasty. Can you please post that recipe if you have it? Also, please post the regular dhal recipe too with garlic, tomato etc.
-Thanks,
Khushi.
Hi Minni,
I'm not sure whether it had ginger and garlic but it definetly had red chillies and mustard.

Minni,
Some time back one of our bachalor friend gave us a spicy powder made in Andra called "Gun powder" made of coconuts, dhals, pinch of tamarind and lots of spicy red colour (no Garlic and no pottukadalai). I also have tried Hemanthji's recipe and it was totally different.Can u post me the recipe if u can
Hi Minni,
I have tasted one chilli thokku - andra style, when I went to Australia in my friend's house. Its sour,hot and very tasty. can you please post me the recipe if you have anything like that.
VM,
I do not know of any "gun" named powder. Do you know what its called in Telugu ? Karappodi I was referring can be made with coconut also. So, thats the closest I could guess its name.
Kalachandra,
In Andhra, especially around Guntur region where Chillies are supposed to be more spicy, people make a pickle with it called "korivikaram". Its a pickle made with ripe red big chillies. It tastes awesome, but its VERY hot! You might be referring to the same.
I shall post the recipe soon.

Minni,
A lot of people refer to Pappula podi as Gun powder..
reason- because pappulu causes bombs(gas) in stomach if eaten in big quantities and its like gun shots sound...
