Kothamalli thogayal is my Amma’s one of the signature recipes. This thogayal is a traditional South Indian recipe made with fresh coriander leaves, red chilli, lentils and garlic. For breakfast / tiffin items like idli, dosai, prepare this thovaiyal like pouring consistency. For rice, prepare the thovaiyal as thick coarse texture, so that it will be easy to mix with rice with a dollop of ghee or gingelly oil. Both the preparation of kothamalli thovaiyal tastes great and excellent accompaniment to your everyday meal.
Heat oil in a kadai. Add in all the ingredients starting fromurad dal to chillies in the kadai. Saute till they turn nice and golden.
Now turn the heat off and add in coriander leaves and mix them. The heat from the kadai will wilt the coriander leaves.
Allow this mixture to cool down.Take them in a blender and add in salt and jaggery. Now grind them into a paste. You can leave them little coarse too. You can add very little water when grinding. Transfer them to a bowl. Serve with dosa or idli.
