Hi all,

I'm in need of some thokku/puli kachal recipes which will stay in the fridge for a couple of months without spoiling. I'm looking for stuff like puliyodharai mix which can be just mixed with plain rice. Thanks!!

  Hi xyz,
  If you want it to last for a couple of months, I would suggest that you add 1/4 cup of vinegar after the tomato paste and spices are cooked. Once you add vinegar, allow the mixture to simmer again on low heat for at least 1 min. before you turn the heat off.
