Garlic chutney recipe | Poondu chutney recipe in Tamil, with full video and step-by-step pictures- Rosappu chutney recipe
This garlic chutney is my all-time favorite, which I learned from my mom. This is quite a popular chutney in Madurai, my hometown. Almost all households make this, and we can also get it at roadside eateries. Somehow, my husband and kids don’t prefer this garlic chutney, since it is a bit spicier than the normal one I make. So I don’t make it at home often. A few days back, when I made dosa for dinner, I thought of making this one for myself. I enjoyed this with dosa, and my family had dosa with coconut chutney!!

1. There will be a slight pungent smell after you eat the chutney, as we are adding raw onion and raw garlic.
2. But the taste will be excellent, so it is worth trying the garlic chutney recipe.

Mouth watering:-) Perfect for idly and Dosa:-)
First time in ur lovely space. You hav a good collection here!!
Looks very yummy. I am just about to make my Dosa and was looking for a good chutney. This seems perfect. But, I am a bit doubtful if I should fry the onion and garlic or they remain raw? Wont it be very raw if not sauted?
Looks perfect and yummy. Dont we need to saute the onion, garlic. wont it be too raw otherwise? Will try it out now
hi,
this will not taste raw and add the oil very hot.
Hi nice recipe..in the step where you have mentioned to add ingredients to mixer, instead of garlic, onion is typed..kindly change it.
Hope u won't mistake this.
Thank you so much for mentioning that. Thanks a bunch.
Do we have to grind shallots and garlic raw?
Yes raw only.
