Coconut Chutney

Coconut Chutney | Kobbari Pachadi

This Coconut Chutney is a special Andhra Pachadi which is very delicious and goes perfect with steamed rice, chapati and dosa also. It is different from the regular chutney. I prepared this Pachadi by frying each ingredient in the oil and ground into a coarse paste. This will stay up to 7 days in the refrigerator.
