- Add prepared tadka to chutney. Mix it well and adjust consistency by adding little water.
Notes
- First while roasting horse gram roast just till golden as we will be roasting it again with other ingredients.
- If you like ginger flavor, then add a small piece of ginger while grinding.
- You can even add garlic while roasting the ingredients then grind it.
- If you are adding garlic you can skip hing while tempering.
- Add 1 big onion while sauteing to give volume and a different flavor.
- But I would suggest to keep other ingredients minimal while making kollu chutney to enjoy the full benefits of kollu or horse gram.
