Pudina thengai pottukadalai chutney


Mint coconut fried gram dhal chutney for dosa

Take half a kernel coconut and  cut into pieces called badhai in Tamil .  I do not grate.  I grate coconut only for burfi.

Add fried gram dhal .  We can increase or decrease the quantity depending upon whether we want  the coconut flavour to me  more or gram dhal flavour more.
