Paruppu  thogayal recipe | Paruppu thuvaiyal is a traditional recipe made using toor dal and black pepper as main ingredients, a recipe given with step-by-step pictures. Paruppu thogayal is one of my favorites and I love to have this with hot plain rice or for Vathakuzhambu sadam. Generally, in many Tamil brahmin houses it is made for Pathiyam, post partam food. We can add garlic pods to this to make it garlic-flavored paruppu thogayal. Amma always makes it with Milagu kuzhambu.
