Pottukadalai chutney recipe with step by step pictures and video. This is one of the easiest chutney recipes I have tried so far.
Fried gram dal or Pottukadalai as we call in tamil is used in many dishes. We use it for chutney, kurma, binding base for vadai, ladoo, thickening agent for kuzhambu varieties etc. I always add little of this dal to coconut chutney.Except the tempering this chutney is a no cook chutney. The chutney tastes just like the ones we get as side dish for bajji, bonda in roadsideshops and railway stations. I adapted this chutney recipe from a tv that I saw a while back.
Pottukadalai chutney recipe:
This is a quick to make chutney with simple ingredients available in the kitchen. To begin with add all the ingredients listed except for ‘to temper’, add little water and grind it a smooth paste. Adjust water after grinding, rinse the grind with water and add it. This chutney is slightly runny when compared to other chutneys. Finally do the tadka and add it. Mix it well. Serve with idli, dosa etc.
Variations:
- I used green chillies, you can replace with red chillies too.
- If you don’t like ginger flavour, skip it.
- You can add 2 pearls of small onion too.
- This chutney is meant to be slightly runny but if you prefer you can make it a bit thick too as per your preference.
Serving and Storage:
- This chutney goes well with idli, dosa, pongal, paniyaram, oothapam, bajji, bonda etc
- This chutney keeps well for a day in room temperature and 2-3 days in fridge. As it has coconut I wouldn’t recommend storing for a longer time.
