Hi Supermoms,
Hope you are all safe.
 In these #lockdown days if there is one thing that gives comfort, it is simple and delicious food. I always try and have tomatoes in stock as it is a basic ingredient for many tangy and tasty Indian recipes. Today I am going to share one such recipe, that brings out all the goodness of Tomato, the Tomato Masiyal. 

Tomato Masiyal can also be considered as the Tamil speaking cousin of the famous Andhra Tomato Pappu. It is my mother's speciality and she makes it so tasty. Now you can also make it, by following the below simple steps.
