Notes

  • Add dry chillis according to your taste, I have added 10 chillies as the chillis are less hot. If they are spicy, adding 3 – 4 chillies is enough.
  • Instead of adding shallots, you can make chutney in the same way by adding an onion. 
  • Add sesame oil for seasoning and you can add sesame oil or peanut oil while sauteing.
