Thakkali Puttu

Thakkali puttu is enhancing the taste of puttu with tomatoes. I make this very easily with tomato thokku. I generally have a stock of thakkali thokku at home whenever the tomato prizes comes down like 10 rs a kg. Because having tomato thokku makes life easire. It can be used as a side dish for idli, dosa even chapathi and can be mixed with rice for a quick dinner. 

Since I foten mix rice with thakkali thokku and have it for quick dinner, I thought why not try the same with puttu. And the result was awesome. I have already posted thakkali thokku recipe here. So over to thakkali puttu recipe,
