CHUTNEY ~SIMPLEST EVER RECIPE!

chutney-recipes
          This chutney is the simplest of all I know, my mom makes this if she is in a hurry to make dosa side dish. Its perfect with both soft,hot idli or dosa. It has only 3 ingredients – green chilli, shallots and salt. How cool is that? But you have to believe me and try to experience the taste. Its spicy and flavorful. We have to eat it by topping with sesame oil. My mom just keep the ingredients in the “ ammi ” and crushes coarsely. Ready within minutes!  No tempering, no frying…

  2. Then add this onion and again use the juice/inch/pulse option to grind it coarsely. It should not be ground smooth or added with any water.

Notes
  • Please use shallots for best taste.
  • Do not grind smooth or add water.
  • Top with lots of sesame oil while eating.
  • The salt should be added enough to balance the heat from chilli. That’s the trick in the recipe.
