Try this unique combination of veggies for a very flavorful chutney.Serves as a great side dish for idly dosas and Indian bread varieties.There is no coconut added here but the texture is super good with the below ingredients.
I normally make a regular thogayal type with the nutritious peerkangai.But some have an aversion to this humble vegetable.Making a spicy kootu variety is another option.But this time wanted to try a new recipe with Ridge Gourd and tried to mix and match it with Capsicum, whose flavour gives this Chutney an amazing taste.It was a great hit at my house during my very first attempt.Planning to make it often in the coming days.

Steps

1

In a pan,drizzle little oil and fry small onions till it's cooked,followed by tomatoes and the chillies.Reduce the spiciness if you find it more.Adding both varieties of chilly is what I prefer!
2

Now add in the sliced Capsicum and let it cook for few mins. Finally add in salt and ridge Gourd pieces and coriander.Cook till it turns mushy and Capsicum is cooked partially.Add in tamarind.
3

Grind to fine or coarse paste as you prefer the chutney consistency. Squeeze few drops of lemon. I don't prefer a tadka for this but if you do so you can garnish it with curry leaves and mustard seasoning.
