Vellulli Karam Podi is the traditional garlic spice powder - a variant of karam podi where slow-roasted whole garlic cloves form the flavour backbone alongside red chillies, lentils, and cumin. The garlic is roasted before grinding, giving it a deep, rounded warmth that raw garlic powder doesn't have.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails style=\"border-top: 1px solid #e5e5e5; padding: 12px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"font-weight: 500; font-size: 14px; cursor: pointer;\"\u003eDoes it taste strongly of garlic?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 8px; font-size: 13px; color: #555; line-height: 1.6;\"\u003eYes - garlic is the dominant flavour, but the roasting process transforms its sharpness into something deeper and more rounded.
