Mint Thogayal Recipe / Pudina Thogayal Recipe with step by step pictures and a short YouTube video. Thogayal or Thuvaiyal takes an important place in Tamilnadu Cuisine. If you are pressed out of time or don’t have any veggies to cook, this thogayal is enough, it’s an awesome combo with Tomato Rasam, Dal Rasam, Lemon Rice, Tamarind Rice etc and the list goes on. It can be mixed with hot plain rice, a dollop of ghee and had, but grind it little watery. It is completely different from Mint Chutney and thogayal will be always thicker, little spicy and semi-coarse. It stays good for a week under refrigeration, but skip using coconut.

Notes

Tips for Pudina Thogayal Recipe

  1. Use fresh, tender and bright green mint leaves for a tasty Mint Thogayal Recipe.
  2. For a variation, an equal quantity of Urad Dal and Bengal Gram / Chana Dal can be used.
  3. Adjust red chilli as per spiciness required for you.
  4. Don't burn the ingredients while roasting, else the thogayal tastes bitter.
  5. Even a small piece of ginger can be added for more flavour and it helps in digestion also.
  6. It stays good for a week under refrigeration, but skip coconut.
  7. Always thogayal should be on the thicker side, so add very little water only, for grinding.
  8. If preferred 1/2 tsp of jaggery can be used, it enhances the taste of the thogayal.
