This kind of chutney is very common in karnataka, . As I am from andhra, I didn’t know much about this chutney untill I got married. In the beginning I was not a big fan of it, may be because I was just used to my mom’s way of cooking. But now I like it very much and this is one of my favourites.
In karnataka there are two ingredients which people try to incorporate in every meal- coconut and jaggery/sugar. I sometimes tease my husband saying that, like Italians who put cheese in anything and everything, you guys put coconut and sugar in everything. But one thing i agree is that coconut defintely makes a meal rich and tastes good.
Ingredients:
- Daliya ( roasted chana dal/chanaga poppu)- 1/2 cup
- grated cocount- 1/4 cup
- green chillies- 6
- coriander (cilantro)
- sugar- 1/4 tsp (optional)
- lemon juice
- salt
Procedure:
Grind all the above ingredients with some water in a mixer to a smooth paste. Now do the popu or tadka with ( 1tsp oil, few mustard seeds, few curry leaves and a pinch of hing). Mix this popu into the chutney and serve with dosa or idli
