Paruppu Thogayal / Lentil Chutney In 10 minutes.

A perfect compliment to Molagu Kozhambu is paruppu thogayal. Lentils are roasted and ground into thick chutney and it is popularly known as paruppu thogayal. It is usually mixed with rice to include protein into the diet. Sometimes, it is also used as a chutney for dosai. To me it tastes great with curd/yogurt rice. A must have with molagu kozhambu. A few weeks ago I had blogged about Molagu kozhambu and forgot to post the paruppu thogayal. Thanks to Sowmya for reminding me to post the thogayal.
