Tomato-Thokku



I had been a long time after my first post, got engaged into my work a lot.
Now, its a comeback with a spicy tomato chutney which is ideal for roti,dosas,idli and rice. A perfect combo for all :)

Ingredients:

Tomato- 3 (ripe and juicy ones)
Garlic- 3 buds
Chilli powder- 1/2 tbsp
Pav bhaji masal- 1 tsp

Seasoning:

Oil- 1 tbsp( sesame oil)
Mustard- 1 tsp
Urad dal - 1 tbsp
Hing- a pinch
curry leaves- a little
Salt- as per your taste

Method:




Cut the tomato into cubes (you can even grind and puree or can even use tomato puree) and garlic into very small pieces.

Take a fry pan and add oil. After that add mustard and wait until the crackling sound  stops. Then add the urad dal and curry leaves.

Add the garlic and tomato and wait until the tomatoes become soft to a half cooked state.

Then add chilli powder, pav bhaji masala and salt and give a quick stir.

Place the stove on medium-low and keep stirring in small intervals.

Once the oil starts oozing out and the tomato leaves the bottom of the pan ( not sticky) the thokku is ready

Enjoy with the combo of your choice!!!
