Coriander Leaves Chutney

Today I chanced upon fresh kaatu kothamalli... appapa...enna oru manam... made chutney with it...

Here's mom's coriander chutney recipe.This chutney will be sweetish due to the addition of sugar. Sugar is to mask the bitterness of cori.

1 bunch coriander leaves with stem- chopped roughly...

2 green chillies -slit & saute in oil till whitish

a handful of urad dhal -stir fry in oil until slightly brown. Add asafoetida to it before taking off fire.

karumbu sakkarai- a tblsp or more-this chutney will be sweetish. so add to ur liking

gooseberry sized tamarind.

Saute the cori & tamarind in a tsp oil until the cori is wilted & starts to turn slightly brownish.

Take all in a mixie cup. Add salt & grind adding minimal water to a rough paste. This goes well with rice & can be stored in fridge for 3-4 days. If using with idli/dosai, add more water & grind to a slightly smooth paste.
