Coconut Chutney with Tomatoes.. A Tangy Twist !!

 

 

South Indian food is incomplete without coconut chutney. The traditional coconut chutney is simply made by mixing coconut with curd ( usually what we get in restaurants) I always wanted to make some change in the traditional recipe. So, I added tomatoes and onion to it and the result was really nice. I liked the color and flavor of this variant. So, you can also try it to see how it works for you 🙂 Serve it with any other dish like moong dal chillas or rawa dosa, etc. Try it and share your feedback 🙂
