Capsicum Chutney

One day was thinking about Dinner plan. After big war between me and my brain, finally decided to prepare Dosai (i can very well read your mind voice, big war just to finalize Dosai !! 😔) as-usual got bored of regular gravies and chutnies. So again another as-usual, started googling to find some innovative and a different chutney. Googled! Googled!! and Googled!!! Tied 😑 Do you think will i leave it ??!! Never, Googling started again !! Tadaaaaaa, 😃 there flashed this Capsicum chutney. Immediately, checked the capsicum availability in my fridge. Varehvah ! there saw a poor yellow capsicum sitting. Grabbed it and within 15 minutes of time, the chutney was ready !


ALL YOU NEED:
Yellow Capsicum 1 No.
Big Onion 1/2 Nos.
Channa Dal 1/2 spoon
Urad Dhall 1/2 spoon
Red Chilly 4 Nos.
Grated coconut 1/4 cup
Roasted Peanut 4 spoons
Tamarind 1 inch
Salt To Taste
Oil 1 tbsp

To Temper
Urad dal 1/2 spoon
Curry Leaf 5 Nos.
Mustard 1/2 spoon
Oil 1/2 spoon


METHOD:
     Dice the capsicum by taking out all the seeds. (i prefer using red capsicum, as it will give rich reddish color to your chutney) Dice the onoin as well. Heat a spoon of oil in pan, add channa dal, urad dal, when it turns golden brown, add red chilly, diced capsicum, diced onion, saute it for 4 mins by adding pinch of salt. Now add grated coconut, roasted peanut (as i was running out of coconut, i added peanuts, you can also omit) and tamarind. Give a saute. Switch off the flame. Let it cool down.

     Once done, grind it smoothly by adjusting salt and transfer it to a serving bowl. Now lets start the tempering process. Keep a pan, add a spoon of oil, add mustard, when it splutters, add urad dal and curry leaf. Put off the stove and add the tempered ingredients into the chutney and give a quick stir. Enjoy with crispy dosa or hot steamed idly.
