Note
Adjust Spice Level: You can modify the heat by adjusting the number of green chilies used. Add more for a spicier chutney or less for a milder flavor.
Consistency: For a thicker chutney, use less water when blending. For a thinner, more dipping-friendly texture, add a bit more water until you reach the desired consistency.
Fresh Coconut: Fresh coconut gives the chutney its best flavor, but you can use frozen or desiccated coconut as an alternative. If using desiccated coconut, soak it in warm water for a few minutes before blending.
Storage: Store the chutney in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Fresh chutney tastes best, so try to consume it quickly.
Tempering (Optional): For an added burst of flavor, temper the chutney with mustard seeds, curry leaves, and dried red chilies in hot oil before serving.
