Coconut Chutney :
The chutney I served with paniyaram is a very simple coconut chutney. This is my grandma's recipe and I don't know why she calls it as "Rojapoo Chutney" ☺️☺ I guess it could be because she had used Dried Red Chillies instead of the usual green chillies
Recipe :
1. Grind 1 cup of grated coconut, 1/4 cup Fried Gram (பொட்டுக்கடலை) , 1 dried chilli,1/2 tsp salt and a little bit of tamarind
2. Add water little by little while grinding
3. Optionally you can add Tadka to this chutney or serve it as it is 🙂
