Paripi Thoghail

Now that the Vatha Koyambi is made and done, we must think about the Paripi
Thoghail.
the excitement of the Vatha Koyambi will not be complete without the Paripi Thoghail. the two eaten together provide a satisfaction, that is undescribable, for the P.Thoghail we need half a coconut grated . In three teaspoons of til (sesame) oil, add two red chillies, half a teaspoon of hing, and a small cutori of toor dal,and fry on slow gas till a nice brown colour.

Grind this fried masala with the half grated coconut and salt. Your Thoghail is ready!...
So terribly simple isn't it?..

When I saw the koyambi and thoghail on the table, I had to do some quick thinking. The quantity of thoghail was a lot more than needed for the koyambi. So I announced that today we would eat our rice mixed with the thoghail and use the koyambi as a taste enhancer !... Luckily for me everyone wanted some change, so there was a universal acceptance of my suggestion !.. Thank god for that. The accessories were brought in, the til oil and fryums all crisp and inviting.
Now put a heap of rice in the middle of your plate, pour two spoons of til oil and one or two tablespoons of the thoghail. Mix with your fingers take a dab of koyambi and one piece of fryum and put into your mouth - all together and slowly take small bite by bites and savour the tastes and fragrances.

Delicious isnt it?...
And of course such spicy food must be followed by a glass full of buttermilk to complete the satisfaction.!..


Do let me know how the whole family enjoyed this meal, I would love to know.

Bye for now.
