Traditional Coconut Chutney (Type - 2)

I learnt this version of Coconut Chutney from my grandma who used to make it for traditional tiffin items. It works out really well to have with Dosa, Idli and Uppuma varieties. The flavour of roasted dals,  red chilli and green chilli blends with the coconut and gives a fantastic taste....
