Ginger Chutney

Ginger is very good for digestion. So I prepare this chutney after a feast day with heavy food. That too with idly it tastes so good and extra idly will go inside and at the same time. We will feel light stomach too.

Ingredients

Ginger - 1/2 cup grated 

Channa Dhal - 1 tbs

Urad dhal - 1 tbs

Green Chillies - 1

Red Chilies - 2

Garlic - 5 pods

Coconut - 1/4 cup

Tamarind - small ball size

Salt and oil as needed

Jaggery - little

Mustard seeds - 1 tsp

Curry leaves - few.

Method

There are almost 100s of ways to prepare ginger chutney.... Today I prepared following this method... U never feel hotness of ginger when u take ginger in this form.... In a pan, add 1tsp oil, add channa dhal, urad dhal, green chillies, red chillies, garlic (optional), fry everything well till become golden brown, remove from fire allow to cool.... Then in the same pan fry ginger in 1/2 tsp of oil for three minutes, switch off flame, add coconut and sauté in the heat of pan itself.....then first grind dhal varieties, then add ginger, coconut, tamarind, salt, little jaggery and grind everything together.... Season it with mustard seeds and curry leaves in sesame oil and serve with hot idles, very heavenly , healthy combo..... Even can have this with rice.
