Horsegram is not a famous legume used in dishes at my home. It is believed to generate much heat in the body when consumed and also is difficult to clean compared to other legumes. I bought a big packet of Horsegram after reading the numerous health benefits of Horse gram. I made rasam, sundal, idli, dosas etc...Today making this chutney powder.
This is good to eat with rice,dosa or chapatis...with ghee it wont be felt so dry.
INGREDIENTS:
1 teaspoon Oil
1 cup Horsegram (cleaned)
6 tablespoons Sesame seeds
4 tablespoons Chana dal
12-14 small size Red chilies (Byadagi)
Gooseberry size Tamarind pulp (deseeded)
1/2 teaspoon Hing
Few curry leaves
1-2 Garlic flakes
1 teaspoon Salt
PROCEDURE:
1. Roast all the ingredients with few drops of oil (except salt).
2. When everything comes to room temperature, grind to powder along with salt.
3. Store in an airtight container. Serve with hot rice and ghee.
NOTES:
1. The original recipe is here. - sharmispassions
2. Horsegram needs to be cleaned first. It almost always has some small stones and sand particles. Take half a cup of lentils and spread it on a plate, slowly look for stones and remove them. Wash thoroughly 2-3 times in running water.
