This Recipe I learnt from my friend swapna's mother when she had come here for her daughter's delivery. A and S have got a beautiful daughter Khushi. well, S is basically from Hyderabad and her mother can only speak Telagu, I had a lovely time learning her recipes by speaking with her in my broken Telugu, as I had told earlier I love Andra Vantalu (Andra cooking) as they are very spicy and delicious.

Hi jayasri,
I tried this recipe and it came out well too. I am planning to make this chutney whenever I plan to go out for a few days trips or during train journey.
