Coconut Chutney image

This rather spicy South Indian chutney is often paired with potato-filled dosas, but may be served with any number of dishes. It's important to use only fresh or frozen grated coconut, not the desiccated (or dried) kind, nor the sweetened. It tastes best the day it is made.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chutney turned out too runny. I think I might have added too much water.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but this chutney was surprisingly good. The flavors are very well-balanced.

This chutney is a great way to add some flavor to your favorite dishes. I love using it as a dipping sauce for samosas and pakoras.

I tried making the coconut chutney but it turned out too spicy for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of chili next time.
