Coconut Thovayal is a very simple summer side dish for curd rice.Very easy to prepare with just few ingredients but tastes so delicious.It is more like chutney but has to be ground to a thick ,coarse paste.
As summer has already reached its peak in Chennai,I’m finding it so difficult to cook and take pics these days.Its been a week since I posted here in my space.Will share lot of juices and salads in my coming posts to make my work simple and keep my family healthy this summer.
