I planned to post tomato rice(thakkali sadam) even before puliyodharai but somehow this has been delaying. As hubby is not fond of tomato rice and he is out of town now I made it for myself and surprisingly mittu too enjoyed it.
Here is a quick travel lunch menu with tomato rice,vazhakkai fry, vadam and chips. I am waiting to resume with kids lunchbox series 3 more menus for travel and I will be back to my comfort zone š

Here is the travel idea menu 7:
My Notes:
- As we are adding just the spice powders and toasting/frying vazhakkai it will stand atleast for a day without getting spoiled.
- Cook rice and let it cool down completely before you add the tomato paste.
- You can even make vazhakkai chips and pack it.
Hi sharmi, nice yummy menu. I feel that dry curries/fries like this will be apt for travel as they don't get spoilt quickly and serving/eating also will be easier as it will be mess free/spill free…..even for rotis i pack potato fry or a mix veg fry that i make with onion,potato, cauliflower, carrot , capsicum, peas, beans,tomato etc sauteed with some masala powder. This will be very dry to eat so will pair it with buttermilk,fruits. Just thought this could give an idea to plan the next travel menu
Good combination…
Perfect travel food:)
For travelling it is perfect idea
