Karnataka chutney powder

Chutney powder also known as Gun powder or Chutney pudi is a dry condiment and its one of the most important side dishes served in South India for tiffin varieties and rice. It can be stored for weeks and had as an accompaniment for Idli, dosa, chapathi, roti and rice. Every state has its own style of making chutney powder. Today’s recipe is an easy and simple Karnataka style spicy chutney powder recipe using dry coconut.

Recently I bought Prestige Endura mixer grinder with 1000W ultra powerful motor. As I wanted to grind small quantities of Idli, dosa batter, I was looking for some heavy duty, elegant and powerful mixer grinder. The features of Prestige Endura met my expectations. It has a sparkling stainless steel finish body, 3 multi purpose jars with 7 super efficient blades gives a stylish look to your modular kitchen.
