Hi All, this is from my mother's kitchen, something quick, something simple but delicious nevertheless. I wanted to make something quick as I was just getting back home from work and it was nearing lunchtime. Let's get straight to it, its called
PARUPPU THOGAYAL ( LENTIL COCONUT CHUTNEY)
INGREDIENTS
TOOR DAL: 1/2 cup
MOONG DAL: 1/2 cup
GRATED COCONUT: 1/2 CUP
RED CHILLI: 1-2
SALT as required
TAMARIND: Tiny piece (dot sized)
MAKING
Dry roast the Toor and the Moong dal with the Red Chilli, once the dal turns color or becomes light brown, switch off the gas and set aside. Now grind the roasted dal with red chili, grated coconut, salt, and tamarind with a bit of water. Grind it into a nice coarse paste consistency. That is it, delicious Paruppu thogayal is ready. You can serve it as a side to vatha kuzhambu or mix with white rice and eat.
TIPS
Garnish it with curry leaves. The dal needs to be well roasted to get the smell off especially of the Moong dal.
