One can never have enough chutneys to make. Even with over 70+ chutney recipes, I still have something new to share today. This one happens to be again one that I noted down from Athamma. She is a master in making Chutneys, Podis, and Pickles and never misses a chance to make a new one.
This Kothimeera Pachadi was something she makes when fresh coriander leaves are in season. We made this a while back when I noted it down. I had to revisit it again when I was thinking of chutneys.
Athamma is traveling now and will be back after a couple of months. Meanwhile, I know hubby dear misses his mom and her podis for sure. She has stopped regular cooking since a while, we keep requesting her to use her culinary expertise to make these chutneys and podis that she seem to have in her memory of her mom's cooking.
So try this delicious chutney, of course, go slow on the green chilies. Since it was for Hubby dear and supposed to be a spicy condiment, she specified that number. One can always reduce it.
Enjoy it with Dosa, Idli and I am guessing it should be good with rice and ghee as well.
