Ingredients

Ingredients for the chutney

  • ½ tablespoon Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Urad dal
  • 2 Green chilies
  • ¼ cup Onions (roughly chopped)
  • 1 cup Watermelon rind (chopped)
  • ¼ cup Coriander leaves (roughly chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Tamarind paste

Ingredients For the tempering

  • 1 tablespoon Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Mustard seeds
  • 10 Curry leaves

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a pan. Add the urad dal and green chilies and saute.
  • Next, add the onions, green chilies, and coriander leaves. Saute. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes.
  • Add the chopped watermelon rinds next.
  • Add the salt next and mix.
  • Keep aside and let it cool down to room temperature.
  • Transfer the mixture to a blender along with the tamarind paste and blend into a smooth paste. You should be able to make the paste without adding water. If it turns too thick then add 1-2 tablespoon of water.
  • Add the tamarind paste and blend it once more.
  • Transfer the chutney to a bowl and keep aside.
  • Prepare the tempering by heating oil in a small pan and adding the mustard seeds and curry leaves. Once they start to crackle, immediately transfer and pour on top of the chutney. Mix.
  • Serve with dosas of your choice.
