KARUVEPPILAI CHUTNEY I CURRY LEAVES DIP I THOGAYAL

Yum
Hi friends, every morning the breakfast menu is such a difficult one to guess it… Main thinking will be what chutney to make for idlies or dosas… Mostly, coconut chutney will be prepared in last minute after many thinks of chutneys… But, luckily we love green chutney more than the coconut chutney, my mom used to prepare green chutney often and store it in refrigerator for 2-3 days. But I and my brother, are not given chance to store it for more than 1 ½ of days… We used to empty the chutney for breakfast, lunch and dinner too…Today’s post for VT – Vegan Thursday which is the brainchild of Priya Suresh akka from Priya’s Versatile Recipes. And compulsory, you can expect vegan foods from our group of friends on every 1st and last Thursday…


Curry leaves is a precious herb and it’s very nutritious and benefits in many ways. Like start from hair care to eyesight, diabetics, etc… You can see the curry leaves in our each and every Indian recipe, right? While roast the curry leaves, the aroma fills your entire kitchen, and it will be too good…
