What is this called?


Can anyone tell me what's the name of this paste? It was one of those things that came with the south Indian rice meals from Komala Vilas. Pretty sure they're not the only people making it. What I could describe of it was that it was moderately spicy and very nutty tasting. Very good with rice. I had asked the server and he mumbled something that sounded to me like 'doe-way'. Any clues anyone?

its actually "Thoveyal"

comes in many types.. like pudina (mint) and parrupu (lentil + nuts) so i'm guessing its the latter. Quite surprised that Komalas is serving it now.. i usually get some only when i head to grannys place.. lol
