Recipe Notes :

  • Use 4 dry red chillies instead of red chilli powder for better taste and texture.
  • Roast the ingredients on low heat to avoid burning.
  • Cool the ingredients before grinding them to avoid the release of oil from peanuts, coconut and sesame seeds.
  • Store the dry chutney in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 15 days.
  • Keep the texture of the chutney coarse.
  • While roasting coconut makes sure that it doesn’t burn and turn dark brown.
  • Add a generous amount of garlic to make it more flavourful.
  • Roasting the garlic part is optional. But I do it. Because it mellows down the pungent raw taste of garlic. So you won’t have the smelly breath.
  • The addition of peanuts and coconut mellow down the pungency. They also add the nutty flavor to the chutney.
  • Adjust the quantity or chili powder as per your liking.
