Erra Karam(Red Chilli Chutney) is a raw chutney..............need not fry or roast any thing.

Ingredients:
1 big red onion,
2tsp. tamarind pulp,
2tsp. fresh coconut (shredded),
4 whole red chillies( I used 3tsps. red chilli powder),
salt to taste,

Seasoning
1tsp.oil,
1no. whole red chilli,
1/2tsp.urad dal,
1 spring of curry leaves,
1/4 tsp. jeera and mustard each.

Grind all the raw ingredients with salt without adding water, as water that comes from onions is sufficient...... now in a pan take 1 tsp. of oil and once it is hot add all the seasoning ingredients and fry them until they splutter, then add the seasoning to the ground paste......serve it with idli or dosa.

For this chutney seasoning is optional .......
