Red Dosa Chutney/Bell Pepper Dip

Posted on October 4, 2017February 15, 2019 by bestiesnotepad

Me and my husband are crazy for South Indian cuisine. We can literally have it 3 times a day, 7 days a week and not get bored of it. For this love of ours, I keep trying new recipes every now and then to explore this cuisine more and more.

Sharing one such chutney/dip which goes with many of the South Indian delicacies like dosa, upma, idli, vada. This is a spicy, tangy chutney with base ingredient as red bell pepper inspired from a blog I regularly follow – VegRecipesOfIndia. So let’s see how this can be prepared.

      Asafoetida is mostly used in Indian cooking and is a healthy spice..you might want to search for it!
      Also known as β€˜hing’, it has many health benefits 😊
