Thakkali Pachadi (Tomato Raitha)

Tomato Raitha is a simple, easy to make tasty raitha. I prepare this as a side dish for any Veg Pulao or Biriyani. Curd based dishes use less spices and are good for digestion.

Ingredients

• Fresh curd – 1 cup
• Tomato – 2 no
• Salt – as per taste
• Sugar – ¼ tea spoon (optional)
• For seasoning
  • Mustard – ½ tea spoon
  • Urad dal or split black gram – ½ tea spoon
  • Turmeric – pinch
  • Asafetida – pinch
  • Red chilli – 2 no
  • Curry leaves – few
  • Coriander leave – 1 string
  • Oil – ½ tea spoon

Method

• Cut tomatoes into medium size pieces; beat curd and keep.
• Do seasoning and add tomato, salt, sugar and fry for few minutes.

• Add with curd.

• Mix well and serve.

• Goes well with Pulao, Biriyani or any stuffed Paratha.

Tips

• Use red ripe tomato and thick curd for better results.
