Notes
**** Kuzhambu Milagai Thool - its an all purpose curry powder used for stir fries / varuval recipes. Spice blend that includes lentils, dry red chilies, coriander, black pepper, cumin and fenugreek seeds. You may replace it with just 1 tsp of red chili powder and 2 tsp of coriander powder OR use sambar powder.
Depending on the spice level and concentration of the flavors use 1 to 2 tbsp of sambar powder to replace kuzhambu milagi thool.
