I dedicate this recipe to my best childhood friend's mom (SHEEBA SILVIA's MOM). She is a great cook and a loving mother for her daughter and to others. Thank you aunty for all the love and thanks for this recipe.
This is one of the recipe I longed for more than 5 years. I have tried many such chutney recipes from the internet and yet couldn’t taste anything close to her's. Finally after so many years I got the recipe and delighted myself with a good meal.
This story is to prove you that its worth trying this recipe at least once and you may notice yourself addicted.
NOTE: If the patient is suffering from non-bleeding piles with constipation, then he is encouraged to include horse gram in his diet. IT'S NOT RECCOMMENDED FOR PREGNANT WOMEN AND PATIENTS WITH BLEEDING PILES.
