03/25/2012: Coconut Chutney - A very common side amongst South Indian dishes. Easy to make. In a skillet heat 2 tsps of Oil. Fry handful of Putnalu / Fried Chana Dhal / Dhalia, chooped Green Chilis and Coconut Powder. Mix this along with Salt and Tamarind in a blender into a fine paste. Add as much Water as required. Season it with usual spices. Can be served as a side for Dosas, Idlis, Chapathis and Upma.a
Note: You can use Peanuts instead of Putnalu. I am allergic so havent used it here. Also fresh Coconut Powder always tastes good. If you dont get fresh Coconut Powder use the frozen Coconut Powder rather than the Dry Coconut Powder for better results.
