Home Made Roasted Chana (Putani/ hurigadale )Chutney Powder , 100 g

Roasted Chana Dal Chutney Powder, also known as Hurigadale/Putani Chutney Pudi , is a very quick and easy condiment prepared using roasted channa dal (fried gram), red chili powder, curry leaves, garlic, tamarind, jaggery, and salt.

Hurigadale Chutney Pudi Ingredients

• Hurikadale (Roasted Chana Dal): also known as fried gram, daliya, putani, or kadle papu. This is the star ingredient in this recipe.
• Dry coconut (optional): You will need dry grated coconut for this recipe. You can also use desiccated coconut.
• Red chili powder:  adjust as per your spice level, or you can also dry roast red dry chilies and use them.
• Garlic cloves: I love the garlic flavor in this podi. However, you can skip it and add ¼ teaspoon of asafoetida (hing) instead.
• Curry leaves: I use 1 stalk of curry leaves, you can increase if you like.
• Jaggery: it's optional but gives a nice flavor.
• Tamarind: is added for tanginess.      ,
• Store it in an air-tight container. Serve Putani Chutney Pudi or fried gram chutney powder with roti or chapati.
