Raw Garlic Chilli Chutney (Poondu Molaga Chutney) | Side dish for Idly, Dosa

I like this chutney for the garlic flavour and its simplicity.Whenever we feel very tired or in no mood to cook, its always idly with this molaga chutney.But mostly for dinner as we dont want to smell garlicky in the mornings when we move out for work :) This chutney brings back memories of my childhood days when we used to pack idly with this chutney and boiled eggs while moving to ooty. It was around 3-4hrs journey by road from coimbatore to ooty and we would relax a bit in conoor for our breakfast....idly with this chutney is my all time fav! The spicy chutney compliments well with soft hot idly, with ghee its so divine!!

Ingredients:

• Red Chillies - 2
• Garlic - 7 to 8
• Curry leaves a a fistful
• Coriander leaves - 1 tbsp
• Salt to taste

Method:

1. Grind the above to a course or smooth paste.


2. Add ghee/gingelly oil and serve with hot idlis

As its raw, d

ont be doubtful of the taste

, its simple but flavourful!

I tried googling few tips of how to Get Rid of Bad Breath from Garlic/Onions and here it is:

• Drink lemon juice
• Brush your teeth
• Try chewing mint or spearmint flavored gum
• A glass of tea also helps
• Yogurt can reduce gases in the mouth that cause garlic breath.

I have tried lemon juice and it works well to avoid garlic odour.

I am moving to my native 2mrw and will be back only next week, so off from blogging and bloghoping for a week...!
