Kollu Thogayal is an easy rice accompaniment that can be prepared within 20 minutes. Kollu Thogayal is good for weight loss. Healthy horsegram is often less popular because of the after taste when it is cooked. This thogayal is prepared by sauting horsegram and tastes good.

Ever since my childhood days Thogayal is is one of my favorite rice accompaniments. Easy to prepare- tastes delicious. Except Paruppu Thogayal and Channa dal Thogayal most of Thogayal varieties have urad dal but based on the key ingredients each Thogayal tastes differently. 

Recently I have started including protein in my every day diet. Among all the lentils kollu is one ingredient which I recently started using a lot. Usually I make Rasam and sundal with kollu. Few years back when I was focusing on weight loss my Amma suggested me this Thogayal. It reminded me of Paruppu Thogayal 

Ginger gives nice flavour to the kollu Thogayal. Though Horse gram is used for the Thogayal no need to soak it. Kollu Thogayal can be instantly prepared. It takes less than 10 minutes for cooking. Thogayal needs about 10 minutes resting to cool down and within 30 minutes healthy rice accompaniment is ready, If you are preparing Kollu Thogayal for lunch.
