PACHAI MILAKAI CHUTNEY/GREEN CHILLY CHUTNEY

This chutney is so simple but delicious with a mild aroma of green chillies. It is standing out  for its stamp of taste. The basic ingredients that we are used here are jaggery, tamarind, toor dal, rock salt and green chillies and asafoetida. 
..
Since we grew up in farming families where jaggery is the natural sweetener, most of our recipes are jaggery based.
