Coconut Chutney with Urad dal

Coconut chutney recipe, made with urad dal and green chili as main ingredients. We make many varieties of coconut chutney, and mostly we add roasted gram or channa dal for making coconut chutney. We South Indian Brahmins make Thengai thogayal with coconut, red chili, and urad dal. Recently one of my friends told me that she tasted coconut chutney with urad dal and it tasted very nice. I had 2 coconuts lying down in my refrigerator and I immediately thought that I would try it out for sure. It turned out quite good and we had Tomato Dosai. I have given some slight variations to this Coconut chutney in the notes section, so please scroll down till the end to read the notes section.
So if you are looking for a variety of chutney recipes for idli | dosai, then this is a nice variation to the usual coconut chutney recipe.

Notes

Notes:
1. I added 2 green chilis and later I felt it was less and added 2 more chilis.
2. You can add a small piece of ginger while grinding the chutney.
3. A clove of garlic or one small onion can be added raw while grinding the chutney.
4. I used freshly grated coconut. Freshly grated coconut needs more chili than the one which is stored inside the fridge.
5. Coconut chutney with urad dal goes well with all varieties of dosa and idli.
