I always look for something to easy to cook in summers so that I don’t have to stand in the kitchen for a long time. I can actually spend the whole summer just sipping on some cool drinks and lying lazily in my bed 🙂 ..It is just a wish but we do have to carry out our daily chores. This is an easy recipe to make some Onion chutney made with small onion/ Shallots.
Fry some onion shallots and make a delicious and easy Onion chutney! I have served this chutney with ghee roast dosa. You can serve with idli, uttapam, upma too.
