First let's prepare the seasoning.Place a pan on the stove on medium heat and add oil.Once the oil is heated up add mustard seeds,urad daal,cumin seeds,red chilly and asafoetida.Switch off the stove and add the curry leaves to the seasoning.

Now in a mixie jar place the daalia,coconut,chillies and start grinding by adding water or yogurt as required.Grind till it makes a nice paste.Add salt and grind it again.

Take the Dalia-Coconut Chutney in a serving bowl and add the seasoning to it.

  1. Thanks Kiran for this quick post. I will surely try it. Is Dalia same as Chutney dal as some people call it or is it something different?
