Kothamalli thokku recipe

Kothamalli thokky recipe -Coriander leaves thokku – Simple and delicious coriander leaves thokku, pairs well with idli, dosai, curd rice, plain rice, chapati, and poori.

I have tried making tomato thokku and I have seen my mom and mother-in-law making this at home so often. Otherwise, we make a variety of thogayals at home. If you ask me what is the difference between thokku and thogayal. For thokku we don’t add any dal while grinding. Only spices are added while grinding. But for thogayal, we saute urad dal or chana dal and grind. Also for most of the thokku, we grind everything raw and later cook it till it shrinks well.

This kothamalli thokku I learned from my friend Janani and it is a super duper hit at home.
