ABOUT

Tomatoes have carotenoids, antioxidants, and vitamin C that help in the proper functioning of the body. Tomatoes also help flush out free radicals from the body and prevent diseases like cancer. They are rich in anti-inflammatory properties that are beneficial for heart and brain health. Adding tomatoes to everyday cooking adds a magical taste and nutrients to the food. One such traditional food is tomato kondattam. Kondattams are saviours when we fall short of a side dish for rice. It’s a quick snack that can be made in the evening. Tomato kondattams are age-old foods that are made using tomatoes, rice, spices, and flavours. The tomatoes lend a light red colour to the kondattams; the rice, aromatic spices, and flavours add to the taste and make them tastier and crunchier. These are sun-dried and free from chemicals and preservatives. These kondattams add an extra crunch to lunch and can also be had as an anytime snack. These crispy kondattams are healthier when they are fried in wood-pressed oils, as they retain the majority of nutrients like vitamin A, C, and D, as well as antioxidants. Wood-pressed oils are heat- and chemical-free. And hence, frying in wood-pressed oils is always a healthier alternative. Frying and draining off the excess oil by placing it in a tissue is the best way to enjoy these crunchy kondattams.
