This is Maharastrian Chutney Recipe called as Garlic Chutney . Tastes really good anytime with anything. Whenever I don’t have any non vegetarian food in the house , I go for this. This always lies in my refrigerator.

There are minimum ingredients required for this dry garlic chutney.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup roasted peanuts

• 5-6 cloves of garlic

• 2 tbsps red chilli powder

• salt to taste

Method:

If you don’t have roasted peanuts, then dry roast raw peanuts on a skillet on medium heat. Don’t burn them. Switch off the stove when you get nice fragrance. Keep them for cooling . After cooling, remove all the peels.

Put all the above ingredients in the blender and give a pulse for few seconds. Do not continuously grind it , as peanuts will loose oil and it will become sticky. Just keep giving some pulses until it becomes coarse powder.

Remove and serve with chapati, Dosa.  You can add yogurt into this red chilli garlic chutney while eating . This lasnichi chutney also tastes good if you add few drops of oil .
