    Hi Padhu, I love your recipes. Keep checking your blog first before making any new dish. You make the cooking seem much easier. Thanks a lot!
    I think you had a recipe on coriander and mint chutney but I am not able to find it in your blog now. Please let me know if you have removed it. I really liked that recipe. Not able to remember all the steps now.

    I followed all the steps but I sauteed coconut & coriander couple of minutes before turning off the flame, otherwise I feel raw coriander smell. It's a perfect recipe.

    Adding tamarind makes it a thogayal isn’t it?

      If you prefer, you can add. Sometimes I add, sometimes I omit. At time I add gooseberry instead of tamarind.
