Garlic - 10 cloves
Red Chillies - 4
Small Onion - 5
Tamarind - 1 tsp
Salt - to taste
To temper:
Gingelly Oil - 1/2 tbspMustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
Curry leaves - 1 small sprig
Method:
- Grind together garlic,small onion,red chillies and tamarind together to a semi coarse mixture in a blender.Set aside. Heat 1 tsp oil in a kadai/pan - add the ingredients listed under 'to temper' let it splutter.
- Then add the garlic onion paste along with salt and give a quick mix along with the tempering and saute till raw smell leaves.Add 1-2 tbsp of water and allow it to boil.When it starts sticking add oil little by little.Switch off and add remaining oil and mix.
My Notes:
- Break the red chillies roughly before grinding so that it grinds well and evenly
- Be generous in adding gingelly oil else the chutney will start sticking.
- The chutney is super spicy to our taste buds so adjust red chillies according to your preference.This goes well with idli dosa and even rotis.
- This will surely keep well for 2 days(in room temperature) which is ideal for packing. When refrigerated it will keep well even for a week.
- We are grinding the ingredients raw so make sure to saute well along with tempering until raw smell totally leaves.
