Tomato Sevai | தக்காளி சேவை | Thakkali Sandhagai

Thakkali Sevai is a popular kongunadu recipe. Sandhagai(a type of rice noodles) is popularly known as Sevai / Idiyappam. It is a healthy guilt-free dish as it is nothing but rice sticks. This time I used ready-made idiyappam. Check this link to know :- how to make Idiyappam - Traditional method
