‘வறுத்து அரச்ச பொடி’ means a spice mix in tamil, that is basically prepared by dry roasting the ingredients.This spice mix is generally used in our households while making ‘Sundal'(offering prepared during navarathri festival). However I use it while preparing any dry sabzi too. You can store it in an air tight container and it will stay good for about a month. The spices used here adds a very nice flavor and aroma to the dish that you are preparing. Adjust the measurements according to your needs.
