Garlic is something that I love in my kitchen.
And there are many health benefits of garlic, it can combat sickness, including common cold and cough. The active compounds in garlic can reduce blood pressure.
Even though we know many benefits of garlic we can’t use for daily cooking , so here I’m showing how to prepare Garlic chutney powder/pudi.
This pudi we can serve with hot rice, dosa, idly, chapathi’s and even it goes well with curd rice.
Garlic chutney powder is almost same as curry leaves chutney powder but measurement are different.
