Receta Onion Chutney – Another version

by Uma

This is a slightly different version made by dear hubby which tasted so good. He called it as the modern version of onion chutney.

I previously posted two other versions of onion chutney. You can find them at the following links.

• Onion Chutney – Zero Oil (Erra Kaaram)
• Tomato Onion Chutney (Oil Free)
• Ingredients:
• 1 medium sized Onion, chopped
• 1 cup fresh Coconut pieces
• • 1 big Tomato, chopped
• 1 stalk of Celery, chopped (makes ½ cup)
• 12 dry Red Chilies
• 1 tsp Coriander Seeds
• ½ tsp Mustard Seeds
• ½ tsp Cumin Seeds
• 2 tsp Oil
• Salt to taste

Preparation:

Pour oil in a pan and add mustard seeds. When they pop, add cumin seeds and all the other ingredients except chilies + coriander seeds + salt and sauté well.

Keep stirring until the veggies become little brownish on sides (approx. 5 minutes). Keep the flame on med. low setting.

Finally add red chilies + coriander seeds and sauté well for a minute. Then turn the flame off and allow the contents to cool for some time.

Then grind the contents into a smooth paste by adding a very little water and salt.

That’s it! Great tasting onion chutney is ready to be eaten!!

This chutney goes will with dosas as well as rice.
