1/4 cup Red onion
1/2 cup Coconut — grated
1 tsp Oil
3 tbsp Urad dal parippu (Uzhunnu)
1 tbsp Channa dal Kadala parippu
3 nos Red chillies
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Tamarind

Preparation

Step 1
For preparing spicy onion chammanthi, first fry urad dal and channa dal in little oil till it becomes red in color and take it off the heat.
Step 2
Powder it in stone and grind it with all the other ingredients to make the chammanthi.
Step 3

Tip

Fresh curry leaves make a genuine difference. Dried curry leaves are a poor substitute — if you cannot get fresh ones, increase the quantity and fry them longer.
