Chutney without coconut

Curry leaves chutney | karuveppilai chutney is an easy chutney recipe, with karuvepillai |curry leaves as the main ingredient. I have tried this at home few times for morning breakfast but never had the chance to click the picture to make a post the recipe of chutney. Today i was making batter of kambu dosa for the dinner and thought will make this chutney and keep it for dinner. The vibrant green colour of the chutney attracts kids and it is the best way of making them to include curry leaves into their food. You can also add few mint leaves to this and spread on bread, while making sandwich.
