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.
