I always look forward to the accompaniments for the main dishes whenever i visit any restuarant.On one such occasion when we all were terribly hungry on our visit to chennai sometime before on road we stopped at Adyar Ananada Bhawan on the highway.The red chutney they served for idli was truly remarkable.It may seem simple sometimes but when right ingredients put in the right propotion turns a simple dish to a royal treat.So when i came home made that very same chutney which was enjoyed by all.So here’s a simple yet spicy chutney coming your way.. Notes You can add…

This lemon chilly chutney is an unusually hot and tangy chutney.Needless to say that it goes well with idlis and dosas and upma too.It requires very few ingredients and apt for those busy mornings when you don’t have time to grate coconut.So when you really want something hot and spicy then go for this lemon chilli chutney.I adapted this recipe from ChitrasFoodBook .Thanks chitra for this wonderful recipe,all at home enjoyed with soft idlis.I made some changes to the original recipe and here it goes..

April 2, 2015 by Nithya Leave a comment

Coriander or kothamalli chutney is one of easiest and quickest chutney varieties and the good part is it is healthy too.Iam planning a chutney series of adding many chutney recipes in my blog and this is a small step towards it.Coriander chutney has this freshness and it’s colour is appealing to the eyes.It tastes great with ilis and dosas.There is another version without coconut and that tastes great too.Now over to the simple recipe of coriander or kothamalli chutney.

No,it’s not a chutney which requires grinding.It’s a chutney with gram flour.And tastes great with idlis,dosas and chappathi too.I learnt this from my MIL who used to make this for idlis and dosas.It’s also called bombay chutney,i don’t have the slightest clue why.It’s been ages since i made this just as a brainstrom i got reminded of this and here it is.It is very easy to make and tastes simply awesome.Do try and let me know..

It is one of the daily rituals at home to make this chutney and many may wonder what is the point in posting it.Iam coming up of posting a variety of these chutneys so thought why not begin with the all time favourite coconut chutney.It is very simply and here i have kept it totally pain.You can have a lot of variations in this with mint,ginger coriander flavoured coconut chutneyes as well.So here it goes.. Notes The flavouring part is solely your upto your taste, add mint, ginger or coriander.

It is always a welcome change for me when i try something from the usual sidedishes and this is what i made last week when Ravi brought his friends over.Sometimes he’ll ask for authentic dishes to be made.I made this in the morning and served this for breakfast with idlis.Brinjal gothsu is a tasty accompaniment which came as a blessing when i was just running out of ideas.I remembered mom’s famous gothsu.You can pair it with pongal,dosa and arisi upma too.Tastes divine.I also make a mix veg gothsu which i’ll post later,but this brinjal gothsu roasted on stove top gives…

PUDINA/MINT CHUTNEY

Early mornings are always busy for me.Daughter leaves early for college and hubby leaves for work soon following suit.In that hurry burry sometimes i break my head for what to serve along with good old idly or dosa.I do make this mint chutney a bit thick in case i pack lunch for them or if serving at home it will be a little watery.Mint has innumerable health benefits,but hubby dear doesn’t like it.Thankfully Dhivya likes it. So to avoid the overpowering flavour of mint i add coriander leaves as well.Mint helps as a cure for gas troubles,migraine headaches and also…

TOMATO CHUTNEY

We make numerous breakfast recipes,different lunch varieties yet we are always on the look out for accompaniments to those dishes.Iam afraid we all experience this,if we don’t have a good side dish the main dish cannot be enjoyed to its full relishment.Tomato chutney is one such side dish which can not only be made in a jiffy,it can be stored for 2-3 days when made properly.I was thinking something new to eat with dosa and was wondering what to do so this recipe i dug out from an old cookbook at home.One good thing about this recipe is that it…
