Tomato sevai


My son sanju never used to eat homemade wheat noodles (Govva sevai).   One day  I saw Chitra Kamath’s post” Tomato Sevai” in the “KKAJ”  in the member’s choice theme.  She used rice noodles but I tried a twist with wheat noodles which my son liked very much and asked me why I didn’t prepare this earlier ??  I used to prepare wheat noodles Pulav or Usli which were my husband’s favourite, now I can satisfy both of them with this delicious “tomato sevai”  thanks to Chitra kamath for such a wonderful recipe.
