Thengai Pottukadalai Thogayal | Thengai Thuvaiyal | Thogayal Recipe

Thengai Pottukadalai Thuvaiyal, a delicious and quick to make thuvaiyal/thogayal from coconut and roasted chana dal. 

Next to coriander/thogamalli thogayal, this is my another favorite thuvaiyal, i love to have them with simple rice and rasam or you can have this as side dish for kootan soru( famous combination from our native.) or any variety like puliyodharai/lemon rice.

Making thogayal using mixie/blender is a bit tricky, even a slight increase of water makes it as chutney instead of thogayal. After few initial trials, now i can make thick thogayal using mixie, the key is to add a tsp of water at a time to get the exact texture as using "Ammi"( a indian hand mortar & pestle ).Now let's checkout the recipe.
