About Coconut Chutney

Swasthi Shreekanth’s basic hotel-style coconut chutney is a South Indian condiment built around fresh coconut and roasted gram. This profile selects the garlic and green-chilli version from her basic recipe.

Cumin and salt season the coconut, with optional lemon juice and coriander for acidity and herbal flavour. The optional tempering brings mustard, curry leaves and oil, with red chilli, hing and urad dal also offered.

The chutney is smooth and thick, with its consistency governed by water. Idli is the selected named accompaniment from the original breakfast serving options.
