STARTUP COOKING

Garlic Chilli chutney is another perfect side dish for South Indian Breakfast like Idli and Dosa. This chutney can be made very easily with available ingredients from the kitchen like shallots garlic, red chillies and tamarind and is flavored with mustard seeds, and curry leaves in sesame oil. 

Poondu Milagai (garlic chilli) Chutney is very spicy and very tasty that is usually made only with dry red chillies. Here for the twist, i added equal quantity of normal red chillies and kashmiri red chillies for little less spice for my kid. It is quite popular in Tamil Nadu, Andhra and Telangana.  

You can also enjoy this chutney with bonda, bajji, samosas, kebab, chaats, etc., This  chutney recipe is simple to prepare and easy to make and can be prepared under 20 minutes. We can store this chutney in refrigerator for a week. This side dish is great for everyday South Indian morning breakfast, lunch boxes and also good for weekend travel. Follow my step by step photo recipe to prepare Poondu Milagai chutney.
