Red Chutney Recipe | Red Dosa Chutney
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons roasted Bengal gram (bhuna chana dal)
- 4 to 5 garlic cloves – small to medium sized
- 3 to 4 Kashmiri dried red chilies – soaked in warm water for 20 to 30 minutes – adjust as per your taste preferences & depending on the type of chilies. For a spicy version, add 4 to 5 Kashmiri red chilies.
- 1 teaspoon tamarind – seedless
- ¼ cup onions – roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons desiccated coconut – unsweetened
- salt as required
- 3 tablespoons water – for grinding chutney ingredients
Steps
- Rinse and chop the onions and garlic, then set the other chutney ingredients aside.
- If you wish, soak the red chillies in hot or warm water for 20 to 30 minutes. Alternatively, blend them immediately without soaking.
- Put all the ingredients into a small blender or a chutney grinder.
- Pour in very little water and grind until the chutney is fine, smooth and thick.
- Move the chutney into a small bowl.
- Offer the Red Chutney alongside Mysore Masala Dosa or any plain dosa, or spread it on dosa or uttapam.
- This quantity makes a small bowl of chutney, enough to spread on 8 to 9 dosa.
