Finding out some cooking secret's from my mom is very difficult. but i will try my most to pull out the secret. Corriander leaves was one secret, she used for her delicious Paneer Masala. after trying Paneer masala, i loved adding corriander leaves, to all my gravy's. it alway's gives a nice taste to the gravy. its a healthy green too. here iam going to share two different forms of Corriander Chutney. One is Corriander Stem Chutney, that can be served for idli, dosa and vada's. and the other one is Green Chutney with Corriander leaves and Mint/Puthina Leaves, that can be used as a spread for sandwitch.
Corriander Stem Chutney / Kothamalli Kaambu Chutney:
Ingredients:
1. Corriander Leave's - 2 tbsp
2. Corriander stem's - 15 (refer the above picture)
3. Grated Coconut - 1/4 cup
4. Green Chilli - 2
5. Roasted Gram / Pottukadalai - 1 tbsp
6. Oil for seasoning - 1/4 tsp
7. Mustard - 1/2 tsp
8. Split Urad Dal - 1/2 tsp
Method:
Wash the Corriander leaves and stem's.
Grind the corriander leaves and stem's along with Grated coconut, green chilli, roasted gram, salt and few tbsp's of water. add water, as in what consistency, you need it.
Heat 1/4 tsp of oil in a pan, add Mustard, when it crack's add urad dal. when the urad turn's golden colour, switch off the flame and pour the mustard, urad dal over the chutney.
It taste's extraordinary. Try it out, to find the difference. Taste's perfect with Idli, Dosa and Vada's.
Green Chutney for Sandwitch:
Ingredients:
Half bunch of corriander leaves,
a small cup of mint leaves ( sauted for a minute in pan),
2 green chilli's,
1/4 cup grated coconut and
ginger of half-inch size.
Method:
All grinded into chutney, with few spoon's of water and salt.
It tasted great with Sandwitch and idli's. dont avoid the coconut, it surely reduces the soarness of corriander leaves. Today, we had egg's over this green chutney spreaded over sandwitch bread. it tasted so Good.
How about Idli Sandwitch??
Spread some green chutney on flat side of one idli and some tomato sauce on other idli's flat side.
insert, veggie's of your choice, Greated cheese, inbetween two idli's and serve it with chutney and sauce.
Hope you like both the chutney's.
Both the chutney's are for Dear Cilantro's JFI- Cilantro.
I would love to have that delicious looking dosa with that chutney.
