Coconut-Lentil Chutney image

This is a one really easy and incredibly tasty chutney. This is my mom's recipe and no one makes it better, honest :) Store the chutney in the refrigerator (for not longer than a day; after that it usually goes bad), unless using it immediately, since the coconut makes it very perishable.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 large coconut, grated
2 tablespoons bengal gram dal (split dried chickpeas) or 2 tablespoons channa dal (dried chickpeas)

I was a bit hesitant to try this chutney because I'm not a big fan of lentils. But I'm so glad I did! The lentils are cooked perfectly and the coconut and spices give it a really nice flavor. I served it with grilled fish and it was a perfect match.
