Receta Kothamalli Thogayal (Dry Coriander Chutney)
Kothamalli Thogayal (Dry Coriander Chutney)
Thogayal can be made quickly with very few ingredients on hand. You don't even have to make a curry to go with this. A raitha or plain yogurt on the side would be perfect. My other favorite thogayal is the one made with Mendhiyam ( Fenugreek seeds). Check it out too. It's worth a try.
