    This kadalai paruppu chutney is a simple and easy No onion no garlic one with chana dal, tomato, red chilli as main ingredients.

    When I asked my MIL a chutney different from the one I usually make, she told to try this.

    I already made this twice. Perfect to go with idli dosa. We had with idli and Aj had it with dosa, both tasted good.

    Love watery yet creamy chutney instead of thick paste like chutneys. And this is the perfect one I can vouch for.

    I love peanut chutney the best, this comes next. It has got a lovely colour. If you can, use baydige chilli or kashmiri red chilli for bright red colour.

    I am sure everyone back to their routine after the holiday season😀. Last year went off really fast for me and looking forward for this New Year with new hopes😊.

    Notes

    • Chana dal should be more and tomato should be very less. Coconut can be adjusted as per your wish.
    • In case you do not have tomato, you can add a pinch of tamarind too.
    • You can add one garlic flake to this, fry in oil and add.
    • This can be made without coconut too, add little more chana dal.

      Yes, Reshmi is right. We are roasting and grinding, so no need to soak.

      I guess coconut is the secret ingredient that gives taste for this chutney. I tried without it and it didn't turn out great. Will try with coconut next time.
