GREEN CHILLI CHUTNEY


Yeah, the word itself gives you a thoght of how spicy the chutney can be. This a great chutney, easy to make and yet blends well with bland dishes mostly, like idli, vada , dosa and even plain rice. (with ghee not to forget :))


Here is how we go about with it:

Ingredients:


Green chillies               15-20
Corriander                   1 full bunch
Tamarind                      25 gms
Curd                            1 tbsp
Salt

Popu:


Chana dal              1tsp
Urad dal                1tsp
Mustard                 1tsp
Jeera                      1tsp
Oil                          2tsp
Asafoetida
Curry leaves
Red chilli                1

Method:


Flame: Medium
Time: 15 min

  1. Wash green chillies and corriander and blend them in the grinder.
  2. Add salt and tamarind.
  3. We can add water to it depending on the thickness one wants.
  4. Remove it,keep it in a seperate bowl and add curd to it.Mix well.
  5. Now, take a small frying pan , add oil in it.
  6. After it gets heated, add chana dal and urad dal.
  7. When they turn slightly brown, add mustard and jeera.
  8. Add curry leaves and a red chilli.
  9. Then add asafoetida into the frying pan.
  10. Pour these contents into the bowl and stir well.


And, "Teekha teekha mirchi chutney is ready!!"


Note:
  1. If its too spicy,add grated coconut .Adds a special taste to it.
  2. Lots of corriander also does the trick to make it spicy and tasty!
Happy cooking!!
