Serving suggestions

Notes
Never add water while making any thoran. The vegetables contain water which is more than enough for cooking.
More Coconut and coconut oil will give the dish more taste. I have used a little less coconut considering my family.
Curry leaves can be added at last for the aroma of the thoran.
