Posted on 02. May, 2011 by Uma in Sauces & Currys, Side Dishes
Kathirikai Gothsu (or Kothsu) is a delicious sauce-like side-dish for breakfast items like Idli, Dosa, Uthappam and Idiappam. It contains a combination of healthy vegetables such as potatoes, brinjals, tomatoes etc, and goes well with rice-based breakfast items. Gothsu is often a welcome change in place of the usual side-dishes like coconut chutney and sambar.
