Thanks to my friend Poonam, trying out this dish and giving me a feedback. She mentioned that the amount of dry chillies I listed below is more. So do adjust depending on intensity of heat in the chillies being used and the heat levels applicable to your taste. We love it spicy!!! and I just dilute it with water and salt as needed :-)

Ingredients :-

• 2 big or 10-12 baby carrots
• 1/2 cup peanuts
• 1/2 cup putana\daliya
• 2-3 garlic cloves
• 4-6 dry red chillies
• 1 tsp jeera
• 1-2 tsp pepper corns
• haldi
• lime (fresh\concentrate)
• mustard seeds
• curry leaves
• 2-3 tsp coconut powder
• oil
• salt

Method:-

1. Heat about 2 spoons oil and put jeera to sputter, then add red chillies.
2. Next add pepper corns, peanuts, putana, garlic, pinch of haldi and carrots(split flat).
3. fry until the peanuts and carrots get a brown glaze.
4. When cooled, grind with some water, salt as needed and about 2-3 tsp lime juice.
5. Heat in pan about 2 tsp oil, to this add mustard seeds, curry leaves and cut dry red chillies. Turn of heat after the sputter and pour this on the chutney.
