thuthuvalai thuvaiyal – Healthy Thuvaiyal recipe

This time when I went for holiday I had a list of things to try / do in India. Thuthuvalai is one of it as I don’t get it in Singapore. My dad eats thuthuvalai podi everyday. He swears that it cures his cold spell. I love the store bought podi my mother brought it last time when she visited me. This thuvaiyal goes well with rice / idli or dosa. English name for this is Pea Eggplant  or claiming brinjal
