Chutney recipe(The red one for idlis and dosas)



   Many of you will agree that there has been days when the dosa batter is ready in the fridge ,but the coconut was out of stock at home.Here is a chutney for those days,but believe me you will never miss your coconut chutney once you get this on the table.
This chutney has other advantages too,as I find it as abetter option for packing in lunch boxes,as this does not get stale soon.This can also be made the previous evening and stocked in the fridge ,to be packed in lunch boxes early next morning.
This tangy and slightly sweet chutney is prepared with the always available ingredients at our homes and so finds a very welcome place on our table.
