Garlic Chutney is a super spicy chutney that goes well with idli and dosa and is also great for chats. It is a quick chutney made with garlic and red chillies, both spicy ingredients and a treat for those who like spicy foods.
Notes
- It is a spicy chutney, fry or roast the garlic before grinding to avoid stomach pain or any other problem caused by raw garlic or excess spiciness.
- You can add red chillis according to your taste.
- I have added large garlic pods, if it is small you can add up to 20 pods.
- You can remove the chilli seeds to reduce the spiciness of chilli.
- You can make variations by adding grated coconut or roasted groundnut with the recipe.
- It will stay fresh for up to 5 days if refrigerated.
- It is a spicy chutney not recommended for kids.
