Poondu milagai chutney recipe garlic flavoured chilli chutney a great spicy sidedish for idli,dosa etc
Poondu milagai chutney recipe with step by step pictures and video. This is one of the must try recipes if you are lover of spicy sidedish varieties.
I am always reluctant to try spicy dishes but this one tempted me so much when I saw the picture in a cookbook so tried it out immediately. Oh my, it was super spicy for our taste buds but tamarind, gingelly oil balances it a bit.
Milagai chutney as the name suggest it has more measure of vara milagai(red chillies), I wanted to reduce the spice level so added half od kashmiri red chillies. In addition, kashmiri red chillies gives a bright red color.
About this recipe:
Generally we make milagai chutney by grinding raw and tempering this method is a bit different. We first saute the ingredients in gingelly oil then later cool down and grind it. Finally a simple mustard tadka is done.
Storing Suggestions:
- Store milagai chutney in a clean dry container so that the shelf life extends.
- Keeps well in room temperature itself for 5 days minimum.
- You can store in fridge and it keeps well for about a week.
Serving Suggestion:
- It is a super spicy sidedish apt for idli, dosa, oothapam etc.
- It actually goes well as a spread for sandwiches or even frankies too.
