Chutney and Sambar are vital in a South-Indian breakfast. While Idli and Dosa are great breakfast options, the chutneys that pairs up with them, make them more interesting. I make chutney with onion, tomato and vegetables, I also love making them with dals. Refer to Chutneys in the website.One such is this tasty Urad Dal Chutney . This is a chutney that can be made with minimal ingredients that are easily available. They taste great with both Idli and Dosa. Try this tasty Urad Dal chutney with your breakfast.

Notes

- Roast asafetida along with Urad dal if you are using the solid one.
