The Tomato rice recipe is from the South of India region. Making tomato rice is quite simple and quick. Within a few minutes, you are done with a yum rice recipe.

If you are looking for a different taste rice recipe, then this is it. Do try this recipe where the ingredients used are all in your kitchen.

Mostly my all recipes are the ones with few ingredients or whatever is available in the kitchen pantry. Preferably I use fresh ingredients in my kitchen. Even the Ginger-garlic paste I make is fresh. Fresh ingredients do a lot of difference to the taste as well as health.

In our southern region, the tomato rice recipe is called Thakkali Sadam.

Let’s check out this simple recipe
