Pottukadalai Chutney | Easy Chutney Recipes

This is a simple and easy chutney made with pottukadalai called as Roasted Gram Dal in English. This chutney is one of my favorites as it tastes good and it's also very quick to put together. The pottukadalai makes this chutney really yum. My kids and my husband also love this chutney. This goes very well with idli and dosa.

2. You can add a bit more coconut also if needed.
