About Tomato thokku

Tomato Thokku is a flavorful South Indian condiment made from ripe tomatoes, tamarind, aromatic spices, and a tempered blend of mustard seeds, curry leaves, and dried red chilies. Often cooked down to a thick paste, it delivers a tangy, spicy, and slightly sweet taste that complements rice, flatbreads, or dosas. Packed with the natural antioxidants and vitamins found in tomatoes, such as Vitamin C and lycopene, it offers some nutritional benefits. The use of minimal oil and fresh, wholesome spices enhances its health appeal. However, the inclusion of salt and oil in the recipe can contribute to higher sodium and calorie content, so moderating portion size is recommended. Tomato Thokku is a vibrant example of Indian culinary tradition and provides a delicious way to enhance meals while retaining key nutrients from its ingredients.
