Tomato Gotsu /Thakkali Gotsu


With lots of homegrown tomatoes,its  natural to make dishes with tomatoes.So made this simple yet finger licking tomato gotsu.

Tomato gotsu aka thakkali gotsu is a perfect accompaniment for fluffy idlys and it can be made in no time.

This gotsu is an instant version and doesn't need any prior preparation.In the original recipe the tomato is chopped and used.But I pureed it and used as my kid's don't like the tomato skin.
