Earlier I have posted the recipe of one more type of carrot (orange coloured one) chutney on my blog which uses regularly available orange coloured one.

But this time I tried making chutney with red coloured carrot, It turned out to be delicious. The sweetness of winter carrot enhanced the taste of the chutney. Prepared it in a little different method.

We even ate this mixed with steaming hot rice and it was mouthwatering. I’m surely going to make this chutney immediately again for couple of more times in near future, then this is going to be in the regularly done dishes list permanently

This chutney is really easy and quick to make as you just need to gather all the stuffs which are needed to make this chutney and then this chutney will be ready in a blink of an eye

Oil – 1 tsp
Red Carrot – 1 cup (heaped, chopped)
Red chilli – 6 byadigi & 3 hot
Bengal gram (chana dal) – 2 &1/2 tbsp
Urad dal – 1&1/2 tbsp
Turmeric powder – 1/2 tsp
Tamarind – 1-inch piece
Asafoetida (Hing) – 1/2 tsp
Grated fresh coconut – 1/4 cup
Rock salt – 1 tsp or to taste
Water – 3/4 to 1 cup

For tempering :

Oil – 1 tbsp
Mustard seeds – 1/2 tsp

PROCEDURE :

Carrot chutney goes well with rotti, chapati, roti and can also eaten mixed with steaming hot rice as well.
Today I paired this red carrot or winter carrot chutney along with Bathua Spring onion rice flour rotti, of which I have a video demonstration too Please click and check the recipe
