This is a boon to moms who are not able to get their kids to eat Carrots :) This is great with adai and works with regular dosa and idli. Here's the recipe:

What you will need :

Grated Carrots: 1-11/2 cups. I usually grate 2 medium carrots.
Roasted Groundnuts - 1/4 cup. Or 3 tablespoons
Red Chilli: 4-5 nos. I add about 7. S likes it spicy.
Garlic Pod: 1.
Tamarind: a small bit
Oil: 1/4 tsp
Coriander powder: 1 tablespoon
Salt : to taste

How to make it:

  • Dry roast the garlic and chillies. Dump into the mixer.
  • Add the roasted groundnuts.
  • Now pour 1/4 tsp of oil and sautee the carrots for a few minutes.
  • Add the corriander powder to the carrots and take it off the heat.
  • Add the tamarind, salt and carrots into the mixer and blend well.
Carrot chutney is ready!
