Ingredients

  • 1 cup grated coconut tightly packed

  • 2 green chilies
  • Salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • 1/4 cup Water

Instructions

  • Break open a coconut and grate it carefully without scrapping the brown bits of the shell. Set aside.
  • Heat 2 teaspoons sesame oil or coconut oil in a small tadka pan. Add one slit green chilli and saute for a minute. Remove to a plate and retain the oil in the pan itself. You can add 2-3 green chilies for spicier chutney
  • Now to a small chutney jar add 1 cup coconut, grated and tightly packed, 2 tablespoons roasted gram, 4 cashews, salt to taste .
  • Add 1/4 cup water and grind to a very smooth paste. Grind it to a smooth chutney as far as possible.
  • Heat the same oil used for frying green chillies again for tempering. Add the mustard seeds, urad dal, curry leaves if using and fry for a minute.
  • Add to the ground chutney along with the oil. Mix well.
  • Serve coconut chutney with idli, dosa, pongal.

Notes

  • Carefully grate only the white part of coconut to get pure white chutney.
  • Use pale green chili variety to avoid the chutney turning green.
  • If not using cashews use 3 tablespoons roasted gram dal.
