Channa dal makes excellent chutney as raw or cooked both. It has a nutty flavour and contains protein, iron and fibre. It is sufficiently low in calories and has no fat.
You need:
100 gm channa dal
½ tea cup of curry leaves/coriander leaves chopped
14-15 clove of garlic
5-6 green chillies (optional)
5-6 Tbsp of Olive/refined oil
2 Tbsp of Vinegar, Salt and sugar to taste
Method:
- Wash and soak the dal for about 4-6 hours. Wash it again and drain out the water completely.
2. Wash the curry leaves. Wash and crush the garlic a little. And chop the green chillies.
3. Place curry leaves, garlic and chopped chillies into the grinder.
4. Add 2 tablespoon vinegar, 5 Tbsp of oil and grind as finely as possible.
5. Add the dal, salt and sugar to taste and continue grinding to a fine paste.
6. Add extra oil if needed to make the mixture smooth. Adjust the seasoning.
It is an excellent relish or dip for savoury finger food.
Happy Cooking !
