Carrot & Zucchini Chutney
Chutney mania continues!! yea if i prepare idli batter at home, its quite an obligation for me to prepare different side dish else its will be quite hard to satisfy my H's tastebuds..Hope u guys can imagine that i really need to break my head to make out delicious, spicy as well as prefect side dish to serve along with hot steaming idlies or crispy dosas..Each and every time i have to break my head to make out chutneys with different combinations of veggies or either with coconut and roasted split channadal (pottukadalai)..Sometimes i used to add many veggies together to try out some healthy chutneys or else i used to add ginger chunks, coriander leaves, mint leaves or tomato chunks with grated coconut and split channadal to change the routine chutneys, one among those my creation is this carrot and zucchini chutney..I just combined together both finely chopped carrots chunks and zucchini chunks with dry red chillies, blueberry size tamarind, ginger chunks with some urad dal and temperd with mustard seeds and curry leaves...My H relished this chutney and i really want to share with u all..
