Meal Companion
Pairs well with rice, idli, dosa or simple meals.
Garlic Thokku is a slow-cooked garlic relish — peeled garlic cloves reduced in sesame oil with red chillies, mustard seeds, tamarind and salt until the garlic softens and caramelises into a deep, pungent, sweet-spicy paste. Tamil garlic thokku is one of the more assertively flavoured entries in the condiment pantry — best suited for curd rice, plain rice with a drizzle of oil, or as a side alongside idli and dosa for those who want significant garlic flavour. Mrs. Esakkiammal cooks each batch slowly at Iyarkai Pantry, Tirunelveli. The 100g jar is a 2–3 week supply. No preservatives, artificial flavours or colours. Refrigerate after opening. The long slow cook transforms raw garlic from sharp and aggressive to mellow and sweet-savoury — quite different in character from garlic used in cooking. A consistently popular request from NRI customers.
