Kathirikai Vathal

Kathirikkai Vathal is a traditional South Indian delicacy made from carefully selected brinjals (eggplants), sliced and sun-dried with a light mix of salt and spices. These vathals are a nostalgic part of Tamil cuisine, offering a crunchy, flavorful addition to everyday meals. When fried in hot oil, they puff up into crispy, golden delights that pair perfectly with sambar rice, curd rice, or rasam.
