This lip smacking spicy and vegan chutney is made with cranberries, almonds, and coconut. This is a perfect dude to idli, dosa, or parathas. This is a great dip to dunk baby carrots, sweet peppers or cucumbers for a healthy snack!
This is an easy recipe with minimum steps. Tamarind, tomato, or lemon is generally used in many of our chutney recipe sto add a little sour or tart flavor. The tart cranberries are great to use in chutneys. They require a good balance with salt and spicy heat. That can be done in many ways and cranberries are used in savory form in our home. Almonds and coconut add to the creaminess of the chutney.
Heat oil in a pan and add the red chilies, onion, and garlic and sauté till onions become translucent. Add the cranberries and sauté till it is soft. Finally, add the shredded coconut and sauté for 2 minutes. Switch off the flame and let it cool.
Transfer the cooled mixture to the blender with coarse almonds, add salt and grind to a smooth paste. While grinding add about three quarters cup of water in installments.
Transfer to a bowl. Heat oil in a pan and add the ingredients listed under tempting. When mustards splutters add asafoetida and fry for 30 seconds.
