2 idli-getti chutney is a famous combo in Tamil nadu hotels. Be it a big restaurant or a small road side hotel, this chutney would be kept in parcels. More than hotels, our tamil movie comedians made this a special combo. Remember Gowndamani, Senthil (All in all azhagu raja comedy) & Vivek comedy scene in a movie where he says”2 idli, getti chutney parcel “ ( I forgot the name of the movie ).
So whenever I think of getti chutney, these scenes flash in my mind. Not just for idli, they serve this chutney with set dosa, vada, bajji & bonda too. As Iam a big fan of this parcel chutney, I wanted to try myself for long time. Even here in Bangalore, they keep this chutney for parcel idli & dosa. I love it a lot. But here, they add little coriander leaves because its color would be green.
Ever since I wanted to make this chutney, I have been trying in different combinations and finally I am settled with this recipe. Initially I used to make it with coconut & fried gram dal (pottukadalai). But I felt some flavour was missing in that. Then I tried adding few garlic cloves & Yes, I got the same taste 
.
. Do prepare this chutney at least 30 minutes before serving for all the flavours to blend well. So friends, do try this getti thengai chutney for idli. சில பல இட்லிகள் உள்ளே போகும் , Iam sure. Moreover, this chutney tastes good for puliodharai & lemon rice too !!
I attempted to take a picture of parcel idli with chutney, is it looking realistic??

Note
| Color of this chutney may vary slightly based on the number of green chillies & the quantity of fried gram dal you use. Add more fried gram dal if you like its flavour. For variations, add few coriander leaves and a pinch of turmeric to get nice green color. U can also try adding one small onion for the above quantity. It also adds a flavour to this chutney. Make sure you add less water while grinding else the consistency may vary. Adjust the number of chillies as per your taste buds. If you want in pure white color, add little milk instead of water. Prepare this chutney at least 30 minutes in advance to enjoy the actual flavour. |
