Chettinad milagai chutney recipe a great sidedish for idli,dosa and paniyaram.Many of you had requested me to post the chutney recipe when I posted this vellai paniyaram and here it is for you all.Though this chutney is the perfect combo chettinad vellai paniyaram it goes well with many other dishes as well.

I used kashmiri chillies for a bright red color and a medium spicy chutney but its ok you can use normal chillies too but the color will be more on the orange side.
