Here is how to do Bisi Bele Bath powder recipe.
Here is the recipe for Bisi Bele Bath.
The important ingredient in this recipe is the dried red chillies. Its the Karnataka Byadagi chillies. BAY-DIG-GAY as its pronounced, Byadagi Chillies come from the Haveri district in Karnataka. The chilli is long and wrinkled and deeply red. Its not very hot but imparts a dark color and aroma. Its not a very spicy variety of chilli. So if you can get Byadagi chillies, its good. Else you can use Kashmiri chillies.
We will be using a combination of byadagi chillies and guntur chillies. We will be roasting all the ingredients before grinding it to a fine powder.
Dry roast Byadagi Chillies, Guntur Chillies, Curry Leaves until very fragrant on low flame. Make sure not to burn the ingredients. If its slightly brown and aromatic, its done. Set aside on a plate to cool.
In the same pan, Dry roast Coriander Seeds, Fenugreek Seeds, Cumin Seeds, Black Peppercorn and Black Mustard Seeds until very fragrant on low flame. Make sure not to burn the ingredients. If its slightly brown and aromatic, its done. Set aside on a plate to cool.
In the same pan, Dry roast Chana Dal and White Urad Dal. Make sure not to burn the ingredients. If the lentils are brown and aromatic, its done. Set aside on a plate to cool.
In the same pan, Dry roast Kapok Buds ( Marati Moggu), Cloves and Cinnamon. Set aside on a plate to cool.
In the same pan, Dry roast Copra Powder ( Dessicated Coconut Powder ) until slightly brown. Set aside on a plate to cool.
After all the ingredients have cooled to room temperature, grind all these ingredients in the mixie to a fine powder. Bottle the powder and use as required.
Its best to store the ground powder in the freezer. The smell of the masalas stays fresh and it lasts for months in the freezer.
