LAAL MIRCHYANCHI CHUTNEY

In Kokani Muslim cuisine the use of dry red chillies for chutneys and masala is a common practice. The chutney made with these chillies called LAAL MIRCHYACHI CHUTNEY is often an accompaniment with a rice delicacy of the cuisine called 'gudh pulao'.

So, as round up to #ChutneyDay on Sept 24 here is my second recipe.
