Tomato Thokku / Thakali Thokku

Tomatoes are often considered a vegetable, though in actuality they are a citrus fruit. Tomatoes are an incredibly versatile food. They are delicious eaten raw, in salads or on sandwiches, and take on a wonderful sweetness when cooked. Their high acid content makes them a perfect food for canning.


I had this recipe to try for a long time but continually passed over it. Finally I decided to just give it a go, and in no time, this dish has become one of my favorites and famous for many of my relatives n frnds. simple, fast, healthy, delicious.

Curry Leaves Chutney / Karivepala Chutney

Curry leaf is an essential ingredient in Indian cooking especially in South India. However, it's customary for most of us to simply remove and throw the leaf from our food and not consume it. Well, you shouldn't be doing that! Wonder why?

Nadan Chammanthi Podi /Roasted Coconut Spice Chutney Powder

Chammanthi Podi needs no introduction to those familiar with Kerala cuisine. I guess most Keralites love this spice rich dish.







Chammanthi podi is roasted coconut spice chutney powder and every home has a stock of their favorite ones. In the earlier days it used to be prepared in  the traditional stone mortar , we call it 'Ural'  and the pounding pestal is called as 'Ulaka' in Tamil.
