This mildly sweet, delicately spicy, greenish tinged elegance pairs very well with dosas and idlis. This chutney is my Mom’s recipe and something that I absolutely love.

Ingredients
1 cup grated fresh coconut
2 green chilies
2 tbsp chopped shallots
salt to taste
1/2 tsp black mustard seeds
1 sprig of curry leaves
2 tsp of coconut oil or refined vegetable oil
Directions
Grind together coconut, shallots and green chilies with 1/2 cup of water. Add more water after grinding to get desired consistency.
Heat oil in a pan, add mustard seeds and curry leaves and let the mustard pop.
Pour the seasoning over the ground mixture and mix well.
Add salt to taste.
Serve with dosas or idlis.
