Oil-free gongura chutney / pachadi (Andhra style)
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Servings: Depend upon quantity of leaves

This is very popular dish in Andhra Pradesh. But the traditional one calls for a lot of oil. This is the exact recipe that my mom used to make with oil, but here I have customised this without oil. It’s a very tasty recipe and being oil free can be used guiltfree too. This needs refrigeration and can be consumed in 3-4 days. It has no water, so it will stay for that time period. 


Ingredients

  • 2 onions roughly chopped
  • 1 onion finely chopped
  • Curry leaves
  • 5 green chilis or as per taste
  • Salt per taste
  • 1 bunch of gongura leaves
  • 1 tsp mustard
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • Garlic (optional)

Method

  • In a clay / iron pan, dry roast roughly chopped onion till they are translucent
  • Add the leaves, chilli, turmeric and salt and let it cook for 2 mins till their color changes and the mix becomes mushy and watery from the sap of the leaves
  • Switch off and let it cool
  • Once cool enough, grind this without water or oil.
  • In another pan, make a dry tadka of mustard cumin and finely chopped onions and fry till they turn brown
  • Add this to the chutney and mix it
  • Enjoy the spicy and tangy chutney with unpolished rice / gluten free chapati.
