Notes
- This chutney is not spicy as it looks the bright red color is because of kashmiri red chillies. You can trust as my 6 year old who runs miles away to spicy food loves this chutney as a spread for dosa.
- Using kashmiri red chillies not only gives bright red color also reduces spice level.
- You can use smaller variety of garlic too called as malai poondu in that case use 15 nos garlic. Mine was quite big so I used 10.
- Instead of tamarind you can add tamarind paste also in that case add it a while boiling.
- Though adding jaggery is optional it gives a nice tangy taste do don't miss it.
