Mint thogayal /Pudina thogayal recipe is one of the yummiest thogayal varieties / chutney recipe for rice. I usually pack this thogayal sadam for my husband’s lunch box. Mint thogayal can be prepared in advance and stored for weeks in refrigerator. My MIL makes this thogayal adding roasted urad dal just like coriander leaves thogayal. But addition of urad dal is completely optional. Add only if u want to increase the quantity / yield of thogayal. This thuvayal tastes great when mixed with plain rice adding sesame oil ( nalla ennai). Try it and enjoy !
Mint thogayal/Pudina thogayal
Delicious mint thogayal recipe for rice,idli,dosa,upma
Cuisine: Indian
Category: Thogayal
Serves: Serves 2
Prep time: 10 Minutes
Cook time: 10 Minutes
Total time: 20 Minutes
INGREDIENTS
1cup = 240ml
To roast n grind
- Mint leaves/pudina leaves – 1 cup (tightly packed)
- Red chillies - 3 nos ( use 5 for spicy taste)
- Urad dal - 1 tbsp
- Jaggery – 1/4 tsp
- Tamarind - Small gooseberry size
- Salt - as needed
|
METHOD
-
Now grind the red chillies, urad dal, soaked tamarind with salt to a coarse mixture.Then add the mint leaves and grind to a smooth, thick paste adding the required water. Remove and serve with plain rice topped with gingely oil . If u want to grind in large quantities and store , u have to follow the next step. Else stop with this step & enjoy.
-
Heat a kadai with little gingely oil / nalla ennai ( 1 tbsp )and put the thogayal into it. The water content in it will be absorbed and becomes thick , heat it for a while. Cool down. It can be stored in a box, refrigerated and kept for 10 days. But this step is purely optional if you are consuming immediately. U can enjoy this thogayal without sauting in oil. But shelf life will be reduced.
For variations u can skip urad dal and add a tbsp of grated coconut while grinding.
