This is a Tanjore cuisine again.....in my Salem cuisine, they use 1/2 channa dhal and 1/2 tur dhal to make this thogayal, along with coconut. That is also tasty, but nothing can beat this authentic Tanjore Thengai Thogayal , which is so very tasty with rice, and in some households , they use it as an accompaniment for Aloo parathas. That also tastes good.
Please check out my other Thogayals:
1. Ridgegourd-greens thogayal
2. Grilled eggplant thogayal
3. Paruppu thogayal

Recipe Cuisine: South Indian; Category: Accompaniment/lunch
Prep time: 5 mts; Cooking time: nil; just roasting.
Serves 6
1 cup grated coconut
Urad dhal, red chillies and hing powder getting roasted in 1 tsp oil
Tamarind paste and the salt added
Add the roasted red chillies too, and grind first.
Then add the roasted urad dhal. The idea is, the urad should stay crunchy and should not become too much ground and mushy..
The final thogayal is ready!
