Prep 12 min Cook 15 min Serves 7 Easy

  • Saltto taste
  • Green Chili2
  • Mustard Seeds1 tsp
  • Curry Leaves1 sprig
  • Dried Red Chilies2
  • Asafoetidaa pinch
  • Tamarind Paste2 tbsp
  • Coconut Oil1 tbsp
  • Grated Coconut1 cup
  • Ridge Gourd2, peeled and diced

Instructions

  1. 1

    Get everything ready: fresh coconut or the ridge gourd prepped, spices within reach — chutney takes minutes.

  2. 2

    Briefly warm the grated coconut in a dry pan until the kitchen smells like it means it.

  3. 3

    Grind the ridge gourd with the grated coconut, tamarind, green chilies and salt to a texture you like — smooth or rustic.

  4. 4

    Check the seasoning with a plain spoonful of rice; adjust till it pops.

  5. 5

    Finish with a sizzling tempering: mustard seeds, curry leaves and dried red chilies poured over the top; stir in only at serving.

Chef's tip

If the masala sticks, add water a tablespoon at a time rather than drowning the dish.
