Coriander & Spring Onion Thogayal Recipe| Dips And Spreads Recipes

Last Modified: April 17, 2015

Oh the bliss of eating steaming hot rice, a generous dollop of ghee and some spicy thugayal is simply indescribable. It can only be experienced. And once one experiences it, its difficult to continue life as before. Now, what i really love about thugayal is that it not only tastes great with rice but also serves well as an accompaniment for flat breads, dosas and sometimes double up as spreads for sandwiches.

The reason why this blog doesnt have many thugayal recipes is that i dont consider them photogenic. Bah! there i said it. I mean, i know its not a reason- not photogenic. But still, yes that s why i dont share thugayal recipes here. But i must overcome my thought. There s no such thing as not photogenic when it comes to food. Anything can be made appetizing in a photo with the right props and shooting in the right angle. This thugayal is a start in that aspect for me. Plus i love this thugayal for its flavors. Its an unusual combination of sorts but works beautifully once everything comes together. You can enjoy this with hot rice or some crispy dosas. Either way, it works like a charm.
