Ginger Chutney

Wednesday, March 10, 2010

Last weekend i made Moong dal dosa/Pesarattu. On sat i made this dosa along with Peanut Chutney. But Vishnu asked me for some other chutney, usually that goes with moong dal dosa. He too doesn't know the name of chutney.. Later, i called my mom n i told her everything. With a laugh, she said its Ginger Chutney n I told that i had a big box of it, which she gave me when i am came here..She told me that its not the one i had, but its taste little bit same to the ginger pickle i have. She told me how to make it fresh. Do you know what happened.. I did it..On Sunday, Pesarattu was ready for Brk Fast with both Ginger Pickle n Ginger Chutney. Little bit spicy, little bit tangy, little bit sweetness makes this chutney a perfect companion to any kind of brkfast.

Ingredients:
Ginger: 1/2 cup, Peeled n cubed. If u want it spicy don't remove the skin
