    Thenga Chammanthi  is a chutney made with coconut as main ingredient.This is basically a kerala style coconut chutney / thogayal as we call in tamil.This Thenga Chammanthi serves as a great sidedish for rice.I am realy not sure whether this is a part of onam sadhya menu but still thought to try and post it as onam is nearing.

    The first time I tasted this  was during my college when a mallu friend used to bring it and we all loved it so much.After that I didn’t have a chance to eat this, so tasting it yesterday rekindled my college days, good old days.
