Karuveppilai Thogayal recipe with step-by-step pictures, an easy-to-make South Indian thogayal recipe using curry leaves pairs well with rice and tiffin varieties. We South Indians make varieties of thogayal at home. More than pickles we all love thogayal as an accompaniment to curd rice. I have posted karuveppilai thokku recipe in jeyashris kitchen. A few weeks back when we friends met for potluck, one of them brought this karuveppilai thogayal. Though the method is the same as ours, adding onion and garlic enhanced the taste even more. I wanted to try this version at home from that day, made it today. It tasted yummy and we enjoyed with plain rice and cabbage thoran.
