GINGER CHUTNEY, INJI CHUTNEY, INJI CURRY

Ginger has got many medicinal values. it is good for digestion, cold, nausea etc.   this simple ginger chutney goes along with any mild curry like plain dal, molagootal etc.  it goes along with dosa, idli, upma also.

I tasted  it when I visited my cousin's house at Calicut.  She had made this chutney along with molagootal.

Let us have a look at the simple inji curry which can be prepared within 5 minutes if you have the ingredients in your fridge.

TOMATO ONION CHUTNEY

Tomato onion chutney is a good accompaniment along with dosa, idli, uttappa etc.  It can be had with rice too.  this is a diet friendly dish.

If you do not have coconut at home or if you want a diet friendly chutney, you can opt for this.  This can be made instantly as tomatoes and onions are always available at home.

MANGO CHUTNEY (MANGA CHAMMANDI)

Mango chutney or chammandi in malayalam it is called is  served with Kanji at home mostly.  We also have it with dosa, idli,plain rice with seasame oil, molagootal rice, dal rice etc.  This can be substituted for a pickle as it tastes sour and spicy.

Varieties of chutneys are made by us like onion chutney, coconut chutney, peanut chutney, green chutney, coriander chutney etc. What about the Mango chutney (manga chammandi), made out of the King of Fruit with coconut, red chilli and bit of tamarind.  

Here   is another favourite item of mine.  But with coconut, I really hesitate to have this due to health issues. You can also make the chutney without coconut if you want.  It is a simple preparation and is heavenly with kanji added with little ghee.
