Lasun Chutney / Garlic chutney

This chutney tastes great with parathas, indian pancakes (dheerda) or vada pav. Traditionally it was always made in an iron mortar and pestle. It gets a very unique taste when made this way. But now grinding is the way to go!

Ingredients:
Garlic - 1 whole
Desiccated coconut (dry) - 3.5 cups
Chilli powder - 2 tsp.
Cumin Seeds - 2 tsp.
Sugar - 1 tsp.
Salt to taste

Before you start:
1) Peel garlic.
2) Roast coconut on low heat till it changes color. Take care as coconut can get burned pretty quickly.

How to Proceed:
1) Mix all the ingredients together and grind to a powder.
2) Store in an airtight container.
