MINT COCONUT CHUTNEY / PUDHINA CHUTNEY

Dear All,
We can make chutney with almost all the greens and pudhina chutney stands on the top of all.
This chutney is so addictive due to its unique flavor and aroma which no other greens can give you.
You can make pudhina chutney without coconut also but I make with coconut to decrease the dominating taste of pudhina.

Lets view the recipe,

SERVINGS : 3 MEMBERS

INGREDIENTS :

Mint leaves / Pudhina - 3/4 cup
Coconut (grated) - 1 cup
Green chilles - 2 nos
Urad dal - 1 tsp
Channa dal - 1 tsp

Hi, Sea has lot of creatures in it that we can cook and we were much more unaware of many . Squid fish is one among the yummy species which I was totally unaware even after coming to Chennai.One day in market I saw them and surprised that they are selling octopus ( it looked like that to me :)). Then I surfed in net and found actually they are squid ( kadamba / kanava) and not octopus , My friend Saranya cooked this gravy for us during her visit to our home .I copied the recipe from her and tried next week itself.Though the squid fish looks very weird the taste was so yummy and there is no fish odor in that.It just tasted like mutton.
