I have a delicious groundnut chutney recipe to make your food more heavenly and tasty in seconds!
Who wouldn’t like a meal loaded with divine goodness? A side dish or dip can help you add tons of refreshing and unique flavors. My traditional Andhra Peanut Chutney is just what you need. It is very simple, versatile, and fun to make. You can use it as a sauce/dip or spread, and it can be of two types- wet and dry. The chilies bring spiciness, and tamarind (imli) adds tanginess to the chutney. This has a perfect balance of both and is referred to as Palli Chutney, Shengdana, and verkadalai Chutney in different parts of India.
It is a great substitute for coconut chutney and tastes perfect with South Indian dishes and other snacks. SpicYum’s mufli ki chutney is healthy, wonderfully delightful, and hearty. Chutneys are typically quintessential in all Indian meals because it makes them more appetizing, wholesome, and lovely.
