Peanut Chutney

By Janani June 19, 2012

This wonderful peanut chutney goes very well with idly and dosa.I go crazy for this dish.Adding peanut to different dish gives a nice aroma to the whole dish.This chutney can be made dry without adding water and can be used as podi for dosa.Its got two ways.I like chutney so I made for adai/lentil dosa.Enjoy the dish.
