Parsley Coconut Chutney

Actually i prepared this chutney by accidently..Sunday i asked my hubby to get coriander leaves from the nearby chinese store, seems he picked some flat parsley leaves which ressembles quite like coriander leaves and i didnt noticed this..Yesterday we had some quinoa dosais for our dinner and i wanted to makes some spicy coriander chuntey as a side dish, but while washing the leaves i noticed that its parsley leaves and dont want to throw them away so i added them along with grated coconut,roasted gram,ginger,green chillies and prepared this chutney, which tastes awesome with crispy dosas, if u dont like the smell of raw parsley leaves, just stir fry them for few minutes before grinding..

Parsley Coconut Chutney

1/4cup Parsley leaves
1/2cup Grated coconut
2nos Green chillies
2tbsp Roasted gram/Pottu kadalai
Salt
1/2tsp Grated ginger
1/2tsp Mustard seeds
few curry leaves
1/2tsp Urad dal
Oil

Grind the parsley leaves, grated coconut, green chillies,grated ginger, roasted gram with salt as bit coarse paste, transfer to a serving bowl, heat enough oil and splutter the mustard seed,urad dal, curry leaves..add this tadka to the chutney and serve immediately..

i tried just parsley chutney but the smell of parsley was very overpowering but the addition of coconut might be interesting!

Parsley in chutney is a very neat twist on the traditional one made with cilantro. Would be great with vadas as well!

This chutney looks yummy! I love parsley, it is probably the herb which is most used in my region, along with basil ;-)
