Kothamalli Thogayal/Coriander Chutney


Thogayal or chutneys are always I make whenever we want to have a simple and comforting lunch.
Kothamalli thogayal can be mixed along with white rice along with a dash of ghee or it can be served as an accompaniment for variety rice.Also this can be used as a side dish for idly and dosa.Usually my mom makes thogayal is in a slightly thicker side as she uses stone mortar to grind.The consistency is purely personal preference so adjust accordingly.
This recipe is with coconut and this can be stored in the refrigerator for 2 days and already I have shared Kothamalli thokku.

Vegetable Biriyani - Pressure Cooker Method

Coming to day 3 of Blogging Marathon#62 under the theme quick dishes I am sharing a one pot meal.This biriyani can be made in 30 minutes if the veggies are chopped and kept or even frozen veggies can also be used. As I have the habit of chopping veggies for the next day cooking this takes only 20-25 minutes of cooking.Also I use the boiling hot water to cook the rice faster.When the rice is cooking in the pressure cooker you can make either a simple raita or an egg omelette to pair up with this biriyani.                                                                                                                                  ...
