Whenever I feel bored with coconut chutney,garlic chutney or kara chutney with idly or my next option would be either carrot chutney or coriander chutney.
Carrot chutney goes very well with idly,dosai even with Adai.This chutney can be made in two versions,one with the coconut and the other with shallots and tomato.
Today I am sharing the recipe with the coconut,here goes the recipe.............
