Onion garlic chutney recipe, delicious chutney recipe made using small onion and tomato, pairs well with Idli and dosa. Onion Garlic chutney | vengaya poondu chutney recipe with full video and step by step pictures.

We make different varieties of chutneys for Idli | dosa. A few weeks back I saw very nice small onions in the Indian market and bought a good quantity. Also, two of my friends also got me small onions | shallots too. Apart from the peeling part, I love the addition of small onions into my cooking. Of course, as everyone says, peeling is not a big task, it’s just time-consuming. If we plan our work accordingly, we can easily do it.

After using shallots in adai, sambar, bisi bele bath, I thought of making chutney using it. Sometime back, my mom was telling me about this chutney, so I wanted to try it out. It was a super hit and paired well with dosa.
