Appa Chutney

This is named so coz it is my dad's favourite chutney.

Ingredients:
Coconut - 1/4 th of a medium size half a coconut (1/8 th of a full coconut)
Red long chillies : 4
Marble sized Tamarind
Salt to taste
Onion 1 chopped
Tomato 1 chopped

To Season:
Mustard
Ulutham parupu/Urad dal
Curry Leaves
Oil

Fry the chillies until they are dark in colour. Grind the coconut along with the chillies, tamarind and salt.
Add some oil and once heated, add the mustard seeds and ulutham parupu. Add the curry leaves too. Then add onions and saute them for a while. Then add the tomatoes too. After the tomatoes are soft, add the ground paste. Add water as much as you want the consistency to be. Check the salt and adjust. Let it come to a boil. Then switch off the stove.
