    Mint Thokku Recipe

    This is my mom's secret mint chutney recipe. This is one of my absolute favorite recipe. This thogayal is a thickish one, taste great when mixed with hot rice or served with dosa or idli. Taste sweet and spicy at the same time. Last week she made this and i stood beside the stove and clicked the pics.

    So here you go to the recipe.

    How to Make Mint Thokku Recipe (Pudhina Thokku)

    1. Take all the roasting ingredients except tamarind and roast them in a dry pan for 3 to 4 mins.
    2. Now add in mint leaves and saute them till they are wilted. 
    3. Add in tamarind and mix them well.
    4. Add in salt and sugar and toss well.
    5. Take this in a blender and add very little water to make into a thick chutney.
    6. Serve with rice, dosa or idli.

      Are you using peppermint or spearmint? Just in case, triangular leaves is peppermint and round leaves is spearmint.
