Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Raw peanuts
- 20 grams Desiccated coconut
- 2 pieces Green chilies
- 10 grams Ginger
- 10 leaves Curry leaves
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Mustard seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 tablespoon Oil (preferably coconut or vegetable)
- 100 milliliters Water
Instructions
Dry roast the raw peanuts in a skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly until they turn golden brown. Allow them to cool and then remove the skins by rubbing them between your palms.
In a blender, combine the roasted peanuts, desiccated coconut, green chilies, ginger, and salt. Add the water and blend until you have a smooth paste. Add water gradually if needed to reach your desired consistency.
Transfer the peanut paste to a serving bowl and add the lemon juice. Mix thoroughly.
In a small pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds.
Once the mustard seeds begin to splutter, add the curry leaves. Stir for a few seconds until the leaves become crisp.
Turn off the heat and immediately pour the tempering mixture over the peanut chutney.
Mix the chutney well with the tempering and adjust seasoning to taste if necessary.
Serve the low carb groundnut chutney with your choice of low carb accompaniments like dosa, idli, or as a dip for vegetables.
