Varada Maiyye,

I tried this for dinner and it truly is super easy and very delicious! My mom used to make Vattunu Tomato saaru using coconut as well while grinding the tomatoes. This Vattunu saaru without coconut is very very tasty. I used sugar instead of jaggery, still it was superb! Thanks Maiyye..

I really liked the presentation of dishes.. but want to bring to your attention i feel important.. there must be some purpose behind mantaining this blog and may be naming of the recipies must be well aligned with the purpose..

when i visited your blog.. i was thinking about aayee and all the recipies cherished in my memory cooked in aayees hand and the native name of the recipe. Here i think the technical english name of the recipe is kind of alianating me when trying to connect to those sweet memories.

to make long story short.. i feel it is better to retain native name of the dish.. it is just my humble suggestion.

Shilpa: Sudee, I always give the Konkani name of the dishes also when writing the recipe. As not all readers of this blog are Konkanis, I also give a translation. I am really confused which recipe you are referring to. This recipe mentions the name as “tomato saar/saru” which is the Konkani name of it. Aayi has just included “Pureed” word which distinguishes this with another tomato saru on the blog.

Hi Shilpa,

Its a coincidence that I also posted my version today on my blog. Next time I will try your style.
