கார சட்னி


There are so many varieties of kaara chutneys are prepared in every house at Tamilnadu. Kaara chutneys are always prepared with small or big onions, red chillies, tamarind, tomato and garlic flakes. But the ratios are always different. Some people do not still accept the chutneys ground in mixi. They only prefer the chutneys ground in Ammi even in these days. This chutney is very different and tasty. This will be very delicious to accompany with crisp dosas.
