No cook kara chutney recipe for idli or dosa or upma. This is my super quick version of kara chutney that we love with idli or upma. Chutney has its permanent place in breakfast and we make an array of chutneys like tomato chutney, badam chutney, ginger chutney, onion chutney recipes for dosa or idli.
This no cook kara chutney is my recent addition to chutney recipes.This is basically a no cook chutney and the tempering is optional. Here I have shown the recipe with tempering to tone down the taste of raw chilies but you can totally skip it.
Serve this kara chutney with idli or dosa. It also goes very well upma or mixed with steamed rice too.
