Hi Aarthi
Can I skip bread? What difference will it make to the chutney in texture ir taste?
Sandhya G.
Ma'am. why do we add bread pieces?
Aarthi
@AnonymousI think bread is important, because it makes it creamy and thick..
Aarthi
@Sandhya G.bread makes the chutney creamy and thick and for me that is the secret ingredients

@Manjuit is lemon juice
Aarthi

Aarthi ji...
When I used spinach leaves in the chutney. After that, some spinach raw flavour comes in ..at the time of eating..
Please give me any solution for removing raw flavour....
thanks in advance....
Aarthi
@Sushil Kumar Goelu must have added too much spinach, add very little like half cup. Addition of lemon juice will remove it.

Hi i am very excited to try your recipes. What kind of green chili peppers are you using? And looks like a handy blender, never seen such, could you link it?
Aarthi
You can use japaneno chillies. And the blender which i am using is a indian one. it is called as mixer grinder in india.
