    Thengai chutney | coconut chutney | thengai chutney without pottukadalai | coconut chutney recipe |Tamilnadu style coconut chutney | Tamil Nadu Style Chutney recipe | Saravana Bhavan Hotel – Coconut Chutney | hotel white chutney is an essential side dish (dip) served with South Indian tiffins like Idli, Dosa, Pongal, Vada, etc.

    Coconut Chutney - two versions

    Two versions of coconut chutney are widely popular in Tamil Nadu—one with tempering and the other is hotel-style coconut chutney (parcel thengai chutney), popularly known as getti chutney without tempering. Many hotels serve this chutney for takeout for an additional cost.

    thick thengai coriander chutney

    This is a very simple chutney recipe with minimum ingredients. In Tamil Nadu, thengai chutney is served as a side dish for idli, dosa, Pongal, vada, and other South Indian tiffin recipes. The moment I think about hotel white chutney I could immediately recollect the hotels Saravana Bhavan, Adayar Ananda Bhavan. I always ask for a second serving of chutney. Being a big fan of restaurant-style coconut chutney | thengai chutney I have experimented with it a number of times and am finally happy with the result!

    What is special about hotel thengai chutney?

    First and foremost is very thick, which is my favorite. Each ingredient gives a unique flavor to this chutney. The chutney recipe is simple with ingredients we all will have in the fridge and pantry. For consistency, we use less water, hence mix frequently. 

     

    Can I skip garlic?

    Garlic is traditionally used, but you can skip it according to your taste.

    Can I temper the hotel-style coconut chutney?

    Yes, you can temper. I tried to recreate the restaurant-style getti chutney I like, so I skipped tempering

    Why grind chutney in batches?

    I prefer grinding the ingredients in batches for the best flavor and smooth grinding

    Should I add less water while grinding the chutney?

    Always add a little water while grinding chutney, which helps for the perfect ground texture. mix well in between so that the chutney grinds well

    The shelf life of chutney

    since we use our hands, it is better to finish within two days.

    Can I skip Tamraind?

    hint of tamarind gives the best flavor. Tamarind is traditionally used, but you can use lemon juice or any other add-on for homestyle food.

    amount of chilli?

    Adjust according to your taste. My kids have less spice tolerance, so I have made it minimal

    What kind of coconut should I use for Hotel white chutney?

    I have used frozen coconut for the chutney. If you are going to use frozen coconut, then defrost the coconut and use it for chutney. If you are planning to use fresh coconut, avoid grating the brown part as it might affect the chutney's color.
